What do you think about the story?

Read what others have to say

Opp got a case and they must challenge the British citizenship of Altaf Hussain. MQM must be careful and refrain butchering Punjabis and Pathans as it would land them in serious trouble and any such move must be avoided. Without Punjab there is no Pakistan. Majority Punjabis are in forces and always maintained the borders of Pakistan and sacrifices their lives for Pakistan. Any enimity against them would cost too much to MQM.
