KARACHI:
Two former bureaucrats, who had been serving in the Sindh government for years, have announced to join the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) on Monday.
Aftab Memon, a former grade-21 officer, who had served in the excise and taxation and the revenue departments, and a retired grade-19 officer, Abdul Hai Dhamraho, announced their joining during a press conference at the Khursheed Begum Secretariat. The party’s ministers greeted the two new members as activists welcomed them with rose petals.
Memon, who hails from Mirpurkhas, said that he was extremely perturbed thinking that despite having so many resources, there was no development in the country. “I joined this party because it delivers,” he said. “It speaks for the middle class and reaches out to the poor.”
Dhamraho, who was the director of excise and taxation, said that despite Larkana being the hotbed of another political party, he found that no other party was doing any work except for MQM.
