Karachi issue being political only politicians can solve it: Shujaat

KARACHI: Muslim League-Q Chief Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain has said that Karachi’s problem was political, only politicians could solve it and added that army, rangers or police force could not resolve this issue.

Addressing an Iftar-dinner party arranged by ML-Q activist Chaudhry Riaz Ghaman in Jedda, Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain said that the Karachi problem was the creation of the politicians and its resolution would have to be found out by the chiefs of all the political parties together. It was imperative for this purpose to convene a long table conference instead of the round table, he said. He further said that the party-chiefs would have to sit together until arriving at any final decision and do not let the conference wind up sans resolving this problem.

Later talking exclusively to Geo News, Q-League chief told that his party talks with the PPP on seat-to-seat adjustments in the next elections were underway. On a query, he made it clear that the new provinces should be made on administrative basis rather than political or ethnic and this would strengthen the country.
