– PML-N expresses unwavering support for MQM-P –

PML-N senior leader Ahsan Iqbal said on Wednesday that his party had expressed unwavering support for the Muttahida Quami Movement-Pakistan (MQM-P).

Speaking to media in Karachi, flanked by MQM-P leader Dr Farooq Sattar, the former planning minister said: "A robust local government system is a priority for the PML-N in the country. When it comes to the country's future and addressing public concerns, there's no platform more effective than local government".

"The acceptance of constitutional amendments will go through the parliamentary process, according to Ahsan Iqbal. The constitutional amendments will grant constitutional protection to local governments, ensuring their continuity, regardless of provincial authorities," Iqbal said.

He stated, "The goal is to secure the existence of local governments under constitutional provisions, similar to national and provincial assemblies."
