ISLAMABAD, June 24: Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) chief Altaf Hussain has urged upon the people to struggle for the elimination of feudalism and VVIP culture from the country.

He stated this in his telephonic address from London on the occasion of the inauguration of MQM Central Office in G-7 on Saturday.

Mr Hussain said the MQM was the only party which had brought people from poor and middle-class families to the parliament.

He said soon representatives from the middle-class would reach Aiwan-i-Sadr and PM’s House. As many as 30 activists of the JUP, including its Islamabad president Afzal Khan, and 43 activists of the JKLF joined the MQM on the occasion.
