The JUI chief criticises the focus on military action and stresses the importance of political leadership
ISLAMABAD
JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman has said in National Assembly (NA) the political people are being sidelined and there is not bigger folly than sidelining political people.
He said this while speaking on his point of order in NA Wednesday.
The law and order and employment situation is highly miserable. Government writ has ended in Balochistan and KP due to lawlessness, he added. The armed persons are grabbing tax. Forces are being attacked in Balochistan. Both sides are resorting to sentiments instead of sanity. Power is considered key to every problem at government level.
He went on to say the prudent are being sidelined. Sentimental youths are replacing the sincere and old politicians. Pakistan is being made clock tower. Government is heedless of such situation. The world powers are benefiting from this situation.
The powers to run and stop CPEC are active. The situation is at the mercy of armed persons.
He underlined there are such areas where flag of Pakistan cannot be waved. We will fight and will render services for every inch of the country by sitting in the opposition. Parliament should go ahead and talk to people of Balochistan and KP to find out solution to problems.
I visited Afghanistan and brought improvement in situation. I told all to foreign ministry. Where attack is made blame is placed on Afghanistan. Who allowed to pass through 250 posts in Afghanistan.
He underscored missing persons issue is very vital issue. Nothing is being told to the family members of missing persons. People are missing since 10 years. A young man who is arrested one year before Peshawar army public school incident is hanged. Will the trust on army be established this way or otherwise.
On one side there is unemployment and on the other side institutions like PWD and utility stores are being disbanded.
He went on to say members of parliament have no role to play.
People like Akhtar Mengal were forced to resign. No matter we are of form 45 or 47, the problems facing nation will be resolved here. I am disappointed parliament has no solution to problems. if there are some other people in the house then some thing will be done.
Pashtoon nation decided to hold people court on October 11. If Pashtoon made any decision then who will be traitor.
