MQM-P calls for revisiting proposed 28th Amendment, transforming ‘feudal democracy into participatory democracy’
The Muttahida Qaumi Political push-Pakistan (MQM-P) urged representatives to revisit the proposed 28th Statute change and make necessary changes to safeguard residents’ freedoms and uphold democracy.
Speaking at a press short report in Karachi, MQM-P Chairman Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui, alongside Mustafa Kamal and Farooq Sattar, underscored what they described as the intensification of long-standing political tensions.
“Today, to address this properly, the 28th Constitution Amendment needs to be reviewed, and if necessary, amended. This would allow a decisive formal declaration to be made urgently.” Siddiqui informed reporters.
“Pakistan seems prepared, and political parties do not appear to oppose the 28th Amendment with the same intensity,” he further stated.
He further stated that after the amendment is tabled and cleared by the country’s legislators, individuals should know they did it for the sake of the country.
Farooq Sattar also weighed in, emphasising local general administration and citizen participation. “Now’s the time to transform Pakistan’s feudal democracy into a participatory democracy that’s inclusive. Every metro in Pakistan should have the right to decide its own fate.”
