Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Emir Sirajul Haq has categorically rejected the mini-budget, saying the JI would bring the masses to the streets against the anti-poor policies of the PDM government. The government of the 14 parties wrote history with its bad governance and incompetence during the past few months and made a complete surrender before the IMF, he said while addressing a press conference at Gwadar Press Club on Wednesday. “We will spread the ongoing movement against inflation in every nook and corner of the country.
The people are no longer ready to be scapegoats on IMF conditions.” The government, he said, targeted the poor people at the behest of the global lender.

The ruling elite, he said, looted resources of the country and stashed their money in foreign accounts, but they always sought sacrifices from the poor public at times of difficulty. The JI chief was in Gwadar to show solidarity with the “Gwadar Rights Movement” since Tuesday. He met the locals and visited the movement office.
