Senate adopts resolution asking govt to deweaponise Karachi
[Dawn] The Senate on Monday passed a resolution with majority asking the government to deweaponise Bloody Karachi
...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It may be the largest city in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous...
in view of the prevailing law and order situation in the metropolis.

The senators of Mutahidda Qaumi Movement (MQM) were caught napping when the resolution was put for voting as only Col. (Retd) Tahir Hussain Mashhadi opposed the passage of the resolution and said instead of deweaponisation of Bloody Karachi, the whole of Pakistain should be deweaponised.

However,
if you can't be a good example, then you'll just have to be a horrible warning...
Chairman Senate Syed Nayyar Hussain Bukhari rejected the proposal, stating that Mashhadi was not even backed by his own colleagues.

Apparently, the MQM senators were happy with the reconciliatory gesture of Senator Azam Khan Hoti of the Awami National Party (ANP) who had shacked hands with MQM leader Babar Khan Ghauri for peace in Bloody Karachi.

The resolution was moved by Senator Shahi Syed of the ANP on April 30.

Earlier, taking part in the debate, Mushahidullah Khan of Pakistain Mohammedan League-Nawaz (PML-N) regretted the fact that Imambargahs and Mosques were being attacked during the holy month of Muharram and the people were not being provided with adequate security.

He said that no one was Shia or Sunni among the general public and the vested interests were on to keep the people divided.
