This is good news. I hope it reflects in the voting behavior of our people as well. MQM falling is a dream for a patriotic Lucknowi like me. But the way I see it there will always be blind supporters of Altaf and MQM gang. No matter how horrendous their crimes. They are like the Taliban sympathizers, they will blame ISI, CIA America but not find fault amongst themselves and their voting methods.
PTI, PML-N or PPP
Yes I agree. As a migrant with limited and unproven pashtun links our family since it did not know pashto when we shifted from Lucknow and therefore considered itself muhajir. The way muhajirs think not only vote would make one sick. They simply think all the other ethnicities are inferior and the muhajirs alone had a role in making Pakistan. As noted in my earlier post a nation cannot function when the ethnic groups are at each others necks. There has to be some mutual respect. As I noted ethnic chauvinism broke Pakistan once and can again but we are locked in hatred for other ethnic groups. We have to accept the other ethnic groups as equal, valuable members of the state and think about Pakistan first. Protecting the language, culture and ways can come later and is important too but not before Pakistan.I sincerely doubt it.
First, majority of the Karachittes are not interested in Politics. That is represented in the voting patterns as barely 20% of eligible voters in Karachi come out to vote.
Second, hardcore MQM voters will continue to come out and vote for MQM purely based on ethnic basis. MQM has done a wonderful job drilling in their message that without us, Mohajir community will be wiped out. The rest 80% Karachittes will continue to stay home and will not bother to go out and vote.
Third, no mainstream political party such as PTI, PML-N or PPP is interested in winning electorally from Karachi. PTI had a good momentum after 2013, but failed to capitalize on it. Part of the reason is electorally Karachi only has 18 seats for NA. Electorally, Karachi does not drive voting trends in Sindh as we can see PPP largely sweeps rest of Sindh despite MQM winning heavily in Karachi since the 90's. It's not the same as Lahore, as Central Punjab tends to vote largely on the same pattern as Lahore.
Thus, i don't see voting patterns change in Karachi although the census is going to be an interesting topic. With millions of new migrants settled in Karachi, new electoral voting lists have the potential to shift the electoral trends in Karachi if census are conducted fairly under the watch of Rangers.
Why the fvck did you mention PPP, those bastards are no better than the MQM, do you want another Zardari for the next 5 years?.
Jamat ud Dawa and ASWJ has replaced em .. Super acheivement .. Double thumbs up
I pray for the day when Census conducted under Army/Rangers fairly some jump from 18 seats to 24 or 26 and in PA seats wash out Karachi to get majority in total Sind to form its own Governmnet as Sind urban population is estimating 60%. The census help MQM dude Sind Governmnet marr jae gi mardam shumari na honne de gi.I sincerely doubt it.

No MQM did not champion bhatta, that was actually Jamatis and PPP who started that. MQM merely adopted it and perfected it. Give credit where its due, mate.
