In a late night speech in the wake of SSP Rao Anwar’s claims, Hussain said that political and military elite is thriving on the sacrifices ‘Mohajirs’ rendered for independence of Pakistan adding that if the injustices against the community would not stop neither Pakistan will survive nor will your rule.
He said that if establishment wants a war, he will ask his party workers to get military training and and spend at least an hour for the purpose.
MQM chief lamented that Pakistan’s ruling elite never considered Mohajirs (immigrants) as Pakistanis and called for an end to the repeated allegation of siding with India.
He was of the view that Baloch, Sindhis, Punjabis and others made organizations for their political rights, none was crushed except MQM.
“But when we started our struggle, we were called agents of RAW (Indian intelligence agency) and a military operation was initiated against us”, said Hussain.
MQM chief opined that workers weathered every storm to chant the slogan of Pakistan Zindabad (Long Live Pakistan).
Condemning the much repeated allegation of working for India, he said that he now asks RAW to help MQM and let everyone see who is the agent of India.

Lashing out at Rao Anwar
Hussain lashed out at SSP Rao Anwar who recently demanded a ban on MQM and called the police officer a ‘Bhangi’ (sweeper).
He maintained that the police officer is himself involved in criminal activities and it would be a disgrace for him to reply to his allegations.

Hussain maintained that a mere transfer of the cop will not work as the matter should be inquired judicially.
