The Jamaat-e-Islami Secretary General Liaqat Baloch has said that political parties who had been in power for the last four years in the name of reconciliation and democracy should not poison the atmosphere that could end up in some extra constitutional change.
Talking to a delegation of notables from the city at Mansoora, he said that holding public meetings, rallies and protest was the democratic right of the parties but the country was passing through a crisis and irresponsible statements and biter language of political leadership could help some foreign or internal forces in their evil designs.
Liaqat Baloch said that the governments coming into being after the February 2008 elections had proved total failure and were a burden on the masses. The government was not prepared to implement the resolutions of the parliament and the APC’s and the rulers were shamefully insulting the judiciary instead of complying with its orders, thereby proving themselves as protectors of corruption. Leading national institutions including Railways, PIA, Steel Mills had been destroyed only for commissions.
He said that the JI stance since 9/11 had been proved to be correct. The country’s independence, integrity and solidarity could be protected only by patriotic, honest and competent leadership which only the JI could provide.
