The Difa-e-Pakistan Council would move court against the government’s order to bar the entry of Hafiz Saeed, Ahmed Ludihanvi and Dr Khadim Hussain Dilhon into the federal capital.
The council announced the decision after a meeting presided over by Chairman Maulana Samiul Haq on Sunday.
After the meeting, Haq told reporters that the government should avoid creating hurdles in the Difa-e-Pakistan Council’s conference, which would be held on Monday at Aabpara Chowk in Islamabad.
He demanded the defence minister be sacked on restoring NATO supplies by air without approval by Pakistan. “We will not allow the government to reopen the NATO supply lines,” he added.
He said the resolution regarding Balochistan in the US Congress was an attack on the independence, sovereignty and solidarity of Pakistan.
He said the imposition of ban on Hafiz Saeed, Maulana Ahmed Ludhianvi and Dr Khadim Dhilon is unlawful and Difa-e-Pakistan Council would knock the door of the court in the matter.
Earlier, former president Pervez Musharraf declared several religious parties defunct but the court rejected his orders. Now the high court has also given a verdict that these parties are not involved in the terrorism. “Protests are being held against the US round the globe and it is pressurising the government regarding the rallies of Difa-e-Pakistan Council.”
“On the issue of Balochistan, a grand public gathering would be held in Quetta on February 27 in which Nawaz Sharif, Imran Khan , Shujaat Hussain and other parties would also be invited”, he added.
