MQM (Altaf)

In Pakistan, a party stands tall, The MQM, loved by all. Founded by Altaf Hussain, you see, In nineteen eighty-four, it came to be. Once known as Muhajir, a name so grand, But Muttahida now, united they stand. A secular party, spreading cheer, With a kite as their symbol, flying high and clear. Starting as students, full of zeal, APMSO, their first appeal. Then came the MQM, strong and true, A force in Karachi, through and through. For years they held power, in the city so bright, A key coalition partner, shining so light. But in twenty fifteen, they took a stand, Resigned from assemblies, across the land. In twenty sixteen, a crackdown was seen, Leaders arrested, their headquarters, a scene. Factions formed, a split in two, But the MQM spirit, still shines through. Random page: MDAS
