Losing Allies, Troubles for PPP government


The decision of Altaf Hussain, London based party chief of MQM has stripped Pakistan People Party government in center and Sindh province.
In meeting of Rabita Committee last night, Altaf Hussain has announced to take their sets in opposition benches and has put the stability of government at stake.
Earlier JUI had parted their way from coalition government after sacking their minister Azam Sawati for his critical stand against Hajj Corruption.
PPP government now needs support of any other party to stable its government in center. Meanwhile the opposition leaders have arranged various meeting to harmonize their agendas against the current PPP government dismissal.  The only ally standing beside PPP government now is ANP of Asfandyar Wali Khan.
Currently holding 125 seats in National Assmbly, PPP government needs 172 seats to maintain its simple majority. Any member can move resolution of No-Confidence against the Prime Minister which will be a real hard test for government.
Analysts say that the only way forward for PPP government is to make coalition with PMLQ in center or agreeing to the demands of JUI. Meanwhile President Zardari has assured to rebuild his usual cooperation with MQM in coming future.
Occurrence of any turmoil or stability is anybody’s guess, but one thing is obvious that the democracy is exposed to threats due to irresponsible and selfish attitude of various political parties.
