keynote deliverance came form Nigraan e Aala MQM North America Dr. Khalid
Maqbool Siddiqui who apprised the gathering of the current political situation
of Pakistan and MQM’s role in future. He said that the organizations with values
and traditions celebrate their victories with Yaum-e-Tashakkur which is a
Thanksgiving to our creator. He also spoke with reference to the 24th Foundation
Day of MQM and said that in a brief period of 3 years after its inception MQM
had proved its vote bank to the ruling class of Pakistan and this was the scare
of that vote bank that an operation was executed on us in 1992. He warned that
the Tehreek has reached to a point now that any decision about Pakistan would be
incomplete and invalid without MQM’s advice, and whenever the history of
Pakistan will be written that has to bear the history of MQM too. The enthusiasm
of the gathering was worth watching when at the end of the event Saathi Video
was played and every one stood up and sang loudly with the Saathi song. The
event culminated at dinner.
