KARACHI (92 News) – The Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) has begun a 100-day cleanliness movement in Karachi on Thursday. Karachi Mayor Waseem Akhtar started the movement by sweeping himself at Shah Faisal Colony. The Karachi mayor said that we have limited resources but our passion is unlimited. He said that those who are creating hurdles in our work are the enemy of the country and Karachi. He said that all political parties are supporting us in the cleanliness movement. On the other hand, MQM-Pakistan leader Farooq Sattar inaugurated the cleanliness movement in Gulshan Iqbal. Addressing on the occasion, Farooq Sattar said that we are working for the betterment of the city. “We will change the outlook of the city in this 100-day program. All the political parties would help the Karachi mayor. We are working with right intentions and Allah Almighty will help us,” he said. He further said that the cleanliness work of the city is above politics. He urged the federal and Sindh government to cooperate in the movement. Meanwhile, as Karachi Mayor Waseem reached Shah Faisal Colony, the workers of MQM-London voiced slogans in favor of MQM leader Altaf Hussain. The workers of MQM-Pakistan confronted them but the city wardens present on the occasion dispersed them and controlled the situation.
