ISLAMABAD, Nov 21: Muttahida Majlis-i-Amal secretary general Maulana Fazlur Rahman said on Wednesday that the international community could not remain unconcerned over the situation arising out of the imposition of emergency in Pakistan.
He was talking to media personnel after meeting Indian High Commissioner Satyabrata Pal who had called on him at his residence.
During the meeting, Maulana Fazl expressed concern over political instability in the country and is reported to have shared his desire for early return of normality by ensuring a level-playing field to all political parties in the coming elections.
Earlier, the British political counsellor met the MMA leader and discussed with him the political situation in the country.
When asked about the possibility of an election boycott by the opposition, the Maulana said: “My party is in favour of participating in the polls, but final decision will be taken by the MMA supreme council in its next meeting”.
Answering a question about the possibility of expanding the anti-Musharraf alliance by adopting a flexible approach towards the Pakistan People’s Party, he said Benazir Bhutto had gone too far in distancing the PPP from religious parties.
