ISLAMABAD: The Muttahida Quami Movement (MQM) has once again decided to re-join the government on Monday, DawnNews reported.

The decision was made after discussions between MQM Chief Altaf Hussain and Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani.

Sources told DawnNews that MQM will first become a part of the AJK government and will then re-join the provincial and federal government shortly after.

On June 26, MQM had decided to part ways with the Pakistan People’s Party and sit on opposition benches in the National Assembly, Senate and Sindh Assembly in protest against the postponement of election on two Karachi seats of the Azad Jamu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly.
