Deputy Convener of the Co-ordination Committee of Muttahida Quami Movement (MQM) Senator Mrs Nasreen Jalil has said that the success of the public meeting of the MQM in Mirpurkhas on 18 March on the occasion of the 29th Foundation Day of the MQM would pave the way for uprooting the archaic feudal system from the country. She was addressing a press conference at the venue of the main gathering that will be held in Mirpurkhas in connection with the foundation day celebrations of the MQM. 

We are thankful to you for coming to attend this Press Conference on our invitation.

You know that the MQM is the only political party in Pakistan that does not take recourse to tall claims, misleading slogans and fake promises for the rights of the people belonging to poor and middle classes. The MQM believes in making practical efforts and it has been making practical efforts for their rights since the very beginning. It has been sending them in national and provincial assemblies, senate and local government institutions purely on merit by setting aside the prejudices of nationality, ethnicity, community, sect and religion. Common people could not even think about reaching these elected houses before the arrival of the MQM. 

The Co-ordination Committee of Muttahida Quami Movement (MQM) has welcomed the passage of a Bill by the National Assembly with unanimous vote outlawing corporal punishment to children. The committee said that the foundation stone for a bright Pakistan has been laid as no one could be allowed to inflict physical punishment to young children who have the responsibility to lead us into future. The committee commended the members of the National Assembly and the civil society who worked for the passage of the Bill to proscribe all forms of physical punishment to children.
