London (UK), Sept 24 (ANI): In a passionate speech at his 71st birthday gathering in London, Altaf Hussain, the leader of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM), fiercely criticized the Pakistani establishment. He argued that Pakistan’s parliament lacks autonomy, the judiciary is not independent, and the rule of law is disregarded. Altaf Hussain stressed that true power in Pakistan lies with the military, while the parliament holds no real authority. He stated that it is justified and necessary to fight against oppressive, polytheistic forces and highlighted that denying the existence of ethnic groups like Punjabi, Pakhtun, Baloch, Sindhi, Seraiki, Kashmiri, Gilgit-Baltistani, or Muhajir is a denial of reality. Hussain also accused the military of supporting newly formed political parties, but he expressed confidence that the people are aware of these strategies and will not trust such establishment-backed groups. He thanked PTI members and others for attending the event and welcomed senior MQM leaders from America.
