SUKKUR, Jan 9: Jeay Sindh Qaumi Mahaz leader Bashir Khan Qureshi announcing withdrawal of resignation from the party leadership has summoned a meeting of the national congress on January 27.

Speaking at a press conference at the press club on Tuesday, he said that he had resigned voluntarily to clear his position before the organising committee formed by the party.

He said the charge-sheet issued to him by the committee only contained personal blames and he had given a satisfactory reply to it, but some people in the committee were deliberately delaying the decision.

He said that two members of the committee exonerated him from the blames and for that reason he along with his aides withdrew the resignations.

He asked the activists to refrain from issuing irresponsible statements to the media, which were harming the party.

He said that any member found causing damage to the party would be dealt according to the party discipline.

Ruling out any divide in the party, Mr Qureshi said that some party members were working against the interests of the party and the matter would be taken up in the meeting of congress.

Refusing to participate in the freedom march announced by members of the organising committee, he said that independence was sacred slogan, but some elements were portraying it wrongly.

Our Thatta correspondent adds: The central leader of Jeay Sindh Qaumi Mahaz (JSQM) Abdul Wahid Arisar has termed unconstitutional the restoration of JSQM's central general body by two members of organising committee, Sarfaraz Memon and Mohammad Rahimoon.

Talking to reporters on telephone he said that the two members out of a total of six had no right to restore the body. He said that the step was aimed at sabotaging the long march to be organised by Qurban Khuhawar, the party’s central organiser.
