Staff Report

ISLAMABAD: President Asif Ali Zardari was given a mandate to hold talks with Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) in the wake of Altaf Hussain’s two-day ultimatum to restore peace in Karachi.

The mandate was given to the President by Sindh cabinet at a meeting held in the capital city of Islamabad today (Wednesday).

Speaking on this occasion, President Zardari said that MQM’s apprehensions would be addressed through talks.

“I want to take the Sindh cabinet on board for holding talks with MQM,” Zardari said.

“If the United States can hold talks with the Taliban after ten hours, why can’t we do the same with MQM?” he asked.

After the cabinet’s meeting, President Zardari convened a meeting of PPP’s ministers.

just time delaying tactics he forgot he has been given mandate after being elected as President of Pakistan he can interfere anything and Karachi is facing worst condition of history so is there need of any such protocols to stop killings his job required untiring resless attitude to work out on priority basis day an night bottom line is that they knew the root cause but they are in coilition with other two parties so they do not want to do what is required negotiation has been under process since this condition has errupted there but things gone past negotiations no body there is tolerating others strict descions are required to stop the killings once for all

The meeting was also attended by the Sindh Chief Minister Syed Qaim Ali Shah, Commerce Minister Makhdoom Amin Fahim, Interior Minister Rahman Malik, Babar Awan and provincial ministers belonging to PPP, PML-Q, ANP and PML Functional.

The meeting took stock of the law and order situation, coalition matters in the province and performance of ministries.

He said the government would not tolerate any miscreant in the city or elsewhere and peace must be restored at all costs.
