HYDERABAD, Feb 22: A PPP Sindh council member, Usman Kennedy, on Friday asked party co-chairperson Asif Ali Zardari not to include MQM in government formation.

Addressing a news conference, Mr Kennedy said that the PPP had a history of bad relationship with the party.

He held the MQM responsible for the bloodshed of PPP activists.

He was of the view that forming a coalition government with MQM would amount to betraying PPP activists who had sacrificed their lives for the party.

He alleged that MQM had betrayed PPP in 1989 when the two parties formed coalition governments in Centre and Sindh.

He accused MQM of entering into an agreement with PML-N on Sept 17, 1989, without taking the PPP into confidence.
