Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) Chief Altaf Hussain has said that he never wants to become Pakistans Prime Minister or President because such power can change a person and a partys ideology.
Lahore, Dec 24 : Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) Chief Altaf Hussain has said that he never wants to become Pakistan's Prime Minister or President because such power can change a person and a party's ideology.
"The country's political dynamics is changing. It was expected that former premier Benazir Bhutto and Former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif would not be allowed to return to Pakistan," Altaf said during an interview to Business Plus.
He said that the Election Commission would ensure transparent elections, adding that he did not think any single political party would have a grand majority.
Hussain said the people of Pakistan followed ideologies, not individuals.
"The MQM had a right to take out a rally on May 12 for the freedom of the judiciary. It had been a pre-planned attack on the MQM by the opposition," he added.
He said he wanted to return to Pakistan as soon as possible, but his party's Rabita Committee had advised him not to return because this is not right time.
He said the MQM was willing to make a coalition with all parties, including the Pakistan People's Party and the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz.
