Those who brought PTI into power no longer with it: Siraj

LAHORE: Emir Jamaat-e-Islami (JI), Sirajul Haq has said that those who had brought Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) into power are no long with the ruling party.

Addressing the meeting of Milli Yakjehti Council at Mansoorah on Saturday, he said the prime minister announcement to gather the PTI workers in Islamabad during voting on no-confidence motion could create dangerous situation and political crisis.

The MYC leaders, a conglomerate of different religious and political
organization, met to discuss the prevailing situation under the chair of the
council president Dr AbualKhair Muhammad Zubair.

The meeting expressed concern over the prevailing crisis and political
instability and made it clear that the only way forward to stop foreign
interference in Pakistan’s internal issues was the nation’s self-reliance
and enforcement of the system based on the teachings of Quran and Sunnah.
The meeting said the US interference into Pakistan’s affairs was
unacceptable to every citizen, asking the nation to stand united to protect
the sovereignty of the country.

Sirajul Haq said that it was an open secret that Pakistan remained under the
influence of the US and west for decades. Every ruler, he added, made
submission before the Washington directions.

He made it clear that the JI had always opposed the US meddling in Pakistan
affairs. He said the PTI government also made surrender before the
international lending agencies working on the behest of the US. He said
Pakistan’s economy was virtually under the control of the IMF and the ruling
party’s ill-conceived polices made it possible.

The JI chief said the prime minister be-fooled the nation in the name of
Madina state. He said the nation must stand united to challenge the
conspiracies against the country. He said the tested faces and parties were
not solution to the problems rather it needed able, honest and dedicated
leadership. He said the JI was struggling hard to transform Pakistan into
Islamic welfare state.
