Islamabad:
The head of Jamiat Ulema-E-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F), Maulana Fazlur Rehman, strongly criticized the government to deteriorate the situation of public order, warning that armed groups “wandered freely” in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (KP), Balutchistan and Sindh, extouting public money.
Addressing a press conference in Islamabad, the head of Jui-F rejected the bill on mines and minerals adopted by the Balutchistan Assembly and announced that explanations had been sought to certain legislators of the province party who voted for legislation.
Fazl also announced that the party would organize solidarity steps in Palestine on April 27 in Lahore, on May 11 in Peshawar and May 15 in Quetta. He said that the Pakistanis would breed the voice in favor of the Palestinian people, who faced Israeli barbarism.
The head of Jui-F expressed his concerns concerning the poor law and the order in the country. “Armed groups wander freely to Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Balutchistan and Sindh, and they extort money from the business world, while the government does not relieve,” he said. He alleged that the current government had not protected the life and property of the people. “There is no short the government anywhere in KP. The situation in KP, Balutchistan, Sindh is indescribable. Parents cannot send children to schools, the business world is worried.”
He told journalists that the General Council JUI-F had rejected the mineral mine and mineral invoices from KP and Balutchistan. “Some of our Balutchistan members have supported the bill. Explanations have been sought. If the explanation is not satisfactory, their membership will be suspended,” he said.
On this occasion, he announced plans of major public marches in favor of the Palestinian people. “The inhabitants of Pakistan will raise their voices in favor of Palestine and will also participate in financial jihad,” he said.
Answering a question, Fazl said he did not intend to form an official opposition alliance, but added that mutual contacts would be maintained to solve the problems of the masses. He also said that the opposition parties were not ready to form a great alliance.
