PESHAWAR
Chief Minister Mahmood Khan has said that Chairman Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Imran Khan was the only leader who voiced against blasphemous publications and pinpointed the emerging issues of Islamophobia in the Western countries.
While criticizing the incumbent federal government led by Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N), Mahmood Khan stated that using of state apparatus for spreading propaganda against Imran Khan, which he called him a national hero, to intimidate him.
“Imran Khan’s efforts against Islamophobia have been recognized by the entire Muslim Ummah. The stance presented by Chairman Imran Khan during his speech in the United Nations was actually the voice coming from the hearts of every Muslim in the world,” he added and said that Imran Khan made it clear that no nation can afford to torment Muslims anymore.
The Chief Minister clarified that PML-N led federal government, in its futile attempt to mislead the masses, was acting in desperation and has put to the wind all social, religious, moral and political norms.
He said that PML-N and its allies in the government were subservient and could not act independently, adding that they have no quality to lead the nation towards prosperity and development.
In a statement issued from the Chief Minister’s secretariat, Mahmood Khan clarified that working for development of Islam is our moral duty and the PTI led provincial government has taken a number of practical steps in this regard.
Solarization of 7370 Mosques, provision of monthly honorarium to prayer leaders, increase in the honorarium of Ulama delivering sermons in Jamia Masjid and introduction of Quranic teachings by translation of the Holy Book in schools were proof enough that the present government was dedicated towards serving our ideology, he added.
Additionally, up-gradation and renovation of Madaris as well as establishment of Model Madaris in district Buner, Abbottabad and Dir have also been reflected in the current provincial ADP.
Mahmood Khan added that people should be aware of the lies and propaganda launched by the current imported Federal setup and look into the past of this corrupt conglomerate.
Mr Khan said that people will not follow these alleged “fugitives” adding that they were merely using the ideology of Pakistan and Islam as a propaganda tool to mislead common citizens.
He said “this act on their part is highly condemnable as it is not only tarnishing our national identity but is also a farce attempt to mislead masses”.
“This corrupt conglomerate is hiding behind Islam to hide the looted wealth of Pakistan. People have not forgotten the PML-N attack on our Supreme Court during the 90s” Mahmood Khan stated.
The Chief Minister concluded that Imran Khan was the only political figure in Pakistan who presented the state of Medina as an ideal and had taken sincere steps for its realization.
The entire nation stands behind Imran Khan and will not step back from any sacrifice for securing its sovereignty.
