DERA ISMAIL KHAN, Nov 13: The Mutahidda Majlis-i-Amal will decide if opposition leader Maulana Fazlur Rehman and Chief Minister Akram Khan Durrani will attend the National Security Council's meeting.

The MMA has convened a meeting of its supreme council in Karachi on Nov 24 to decide if they should participate in the meeting of the National Security Council to be held on Nov 25, said Maulana Fazlur Rehman while talking to journalists here on Saturday.

He accused President Gen Pervez Musharraf and the federal government of violating the agreement reached with the MMA by passing the bill on the president's military uniform from parliament. The government had never tried to remove the opposition's reservations on these issues, he said.

Sources said MMA president Qazi Hussain Ahmad and MNA Liaquat Baloch held a marathon meeting with Maulana Fazlur Rehman at his residence here on Thursday night to discuss the NSC meeting and to chalk out the agenda for the MMA supreme council meeting.

The MMA leaders discussed the strategy for a joint movement with the Alliance for Restoration of Democracy against the government and the president's military uniform.
