Your issue is pti or non urdu speaking migrating to Karachi?
Both.
However, my problem is not non-Urdu speaking migrating to Karachi specifically. It's the Kacchi Abaadis, the drugs, and the Land Mafia among them, sponsored by the PPP to actually get some presence in Karachi that I have a problem with
The whole Purani sabzi mandi area is one huge example of Land Mafia. There are Kacchi Abaadis in many, many areas, and some of them even have Pakkay homes but still live there. PPP registers them to vote.
MQM does many, many bad things as well. Like I said, no Doodh ki Dhulli party, I've personally seen PTI workers who have shut down shops and were then beaten off by MQM thugs for doing so.
So yeah, the problem in Karachi is not specifically migration of other people, but forced resettlement and land grabs by criminals. That is an issue that MQM has raised a lot of noise on, but other parties ignore it
As for PTI, they won't win from Karachi. MQM played the ethnic card this time around a bit, however, PTI's fundamental problem is they ignored this city, worse than they ignored Multan and Pindi.
PTI would have won 50-60 seats if the election was held in 2013. The Rangers Operation, and PTI's own complete stupidity in not focusing on this city meant they were irrelevant. Why vote for them in these elections?
No one is asking PTI to focus only on Karachi, but they have no presence here. Having a Karachi office, people from Karachi (Whatever the ethnicity) who focus only on the Karachi issues but actually give solutions, and removal of people like Ali Zaidi. And also no more stupid emotional videos like Hamza Ali Abbasi's that insult Karachiites. Most of the people who vote aren't rich. They're middle class or poor and MQM represents them.
PTI is seen as the party of the rich among them. From what I see, this is true in Punjab too.
I don't see this as anyone but PTI's fault. They will be irrelevant in the next election, with JUI-F rising in KPK
karachi has the most well educated people in pakistan, education benefit is you don't easily absorb state narrative or the punjabi dominated media propaganda , which have all these years work hard to corner mqm.
government is afraid of united muhajir under the leadership of MQM and clearly poisioning other pakistani minds. it's proved MQM is working for muhajir interest that's why they vote him
Nope
MQM works because the city doesn't have the rights it should, because the Land Mafia and all is ignored by the Rangers, and only MQM targeted, because no one cares about the city or does anything for it but MQM. MQM MNA's sit at least 2 days a week in their local office. Others don't.
Anyway, Mohajirs are very diverse too. I'm not Urdu speaking, but I'm a Muhajir and not Punjabi. There are Delhi Walas, Memons, Urdu Speaking people. Urdu Speaking isn't even the majority in Karachi. And I think Mohajirs are just barely the majority at this point too
PTI and other parties need to see why even Punjabis have voted MQM. It's not on the ethnic card, is it?
Also, MQM is nothing special either. Nothing to be afraid of. Just better than the rest.
An Afghan giving his expert opinion while living here is hilarious though
