Karachi: Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) chief Altaf Hussain on Tuesday telephoned Adviser to PM on Interior Affairs, Rehman Malik, and praised him for resigning from the Senate on the issue of the dual nationality.
In a statement issued by MQM here on Tuesday, Hussain said that Rehman Malik has raised the heads of over 1.5 million overseas Pakistanis with pride by resigning the senate membership.
The MQM Chief said that the opposition parties were claiming that the bill on the dual nationality was being introduced in order to protect Rehman Malik.
“The resignation by Malik has thrown the opposition off balance,” he added.
The MQM chief said that Malik had demonstrated by showing solidarity with the overseas Pakistanis, that the bill was actually introduced for giving the right to vote to Pakistanis living abroad.
