Just like Imran enjoyed all the benefits from PML-N, PPP, Musharraf , without having single seat. MQM join the govt after winning election of its own, not winning by using shoulders of some people, like Imran used Musharraf and co. Nawaz and JI used ISI by joing IJI. PPP gets by doing NRO.
Before joining in PML-Q. MQM boycotted local bodies election in 2001, because constitution was suspended. But, all the champions of democracy took part in that election. Also Imran Khan took part in it. Before that, he had campaigned in referendum for MUSHRRAF.
After act of Musharraf on 12 October, 1999, was declared legitimate by the judges. And said, Musharraf act was an Islamic because ISLAM PERMITS to do so. Then MQM took Part in election 2002.
MQM was in in 1988, on the basis of Accord, which was in between MQM & PPP,
And out after 11 month, when Accord was not implemented.
MQM was with Nawaz then, but, operation was started, then came from Govt.
Again, with PPP, to make operation stop. But, PPP severe that operation, so MQM again came back from the govt.
Then Again Join, PML, because, Ch Nisar, Nawaz, etc came to London, to express his sorrow and grief and says sorry to MQM on the operation. And said, it was the mistake.
MQM supported them, but, they didn't own, what they said in London. Hyder Abbas Rizvi said that in NA on reply of CH Nisar speech, that, "THE CONVERSATION OF PML MEMBERS IN LONDON WITH ALTAF WAS RECORDED. AND IF PML DISOWNS THAT, IT WILL BE MADE AVAILABLE FOR PUBLIC".
After winning election, then MQM join PML-Q. Because, MQM won seats of its own. Not won by using MUSHARRAF shoulder.
Again, Joing PPP, but, not sold the soul. Took stance on NRO, KERRY LUGAR BILL, NAZAM-e-ADAL. And also did, work in the mention best interest as much as it could.
