Jamaat-e Islami (JI) Pakistan Chief and Difa-e Pakistan Council (DPC) Central Leader Syed Munawwar Hassan has warned that any attempt to restore supply line of NATO through Pakistani soil would never bear fruit and the DPC would never allow to happen this evil. The United States of America wanted to convert the country as unprotected land and to carry out sabotage activities as it did in Silala.
“We are ready to pay for any price but would not allow US and NATO to get reinforcement through the country”. This he said while addressing a press briefing after an important DPC leader meeting held Saturday at Idara-e Noor-e Haq.
The present rulers were pushing the entire nation to wall and endorsing the wicked US and NATO to continue with the genocide of the Muslims of the region, he said adding that on May 27, the DPC would convene a grand workers convention at New MA Jinnah Road near Islamia College and on June 1, token sit-in would be staged at all divisional headquarters. The DPC leaders would carve out the pros and cons of the long march on June 5.
The press briefing was also addressed by Ameer Jamat-ud-dawa Prof. hafiz Muhammad Saeed. JI Secretary General Liaquat Baloch, JI Sindh Ameer Asadullah Bhutto, JI Karachi Ameer Muhammad Hussain Mahenti, Awami Muslim League President Shaikh Rasheed Ahmed, Jamiat Ulema Islam-S leader Mufti Usman Yar Khan, Pakistan Ulema Council Chairman Allama Tahir Mahmood Ashrafi, Ansar Al Umma leader Maulana Fazlur Rehman Khalil, Tehreek-e Difa-e Pakistan leader Zahid Bakhtawari, Jamat-ud-dawa leader Ameer Hamza and Maulana Yar Muhammad Khan were present.
JI Chief also expressed his deep concern on firing incident on a rally that was produced by Sindhi nationalists in the city. While commenting on the incident of firing incident on a passenger bus in Benazirabad, he said that the government had failed to protect people’s lives and the law enforcement agencies had also failed to play their role in this regard. The government had lost moral reasoning for staying in power. He said that the religious seminary in Akoora Khattak under the auspices of Maulana Samiul Haq was targeted by the government.
He said that the DPC had decided to stage a long march, which details would be finalized in a meeting with DPC leaders at Akoora Khattak on June 5. On May 27, workers convention would be held at New MA Jinnah Road, which would be addressed by DPC eminent leaders. He said that DPC parties believed in the supremacy of law and all its programmes would be within the framework of the constitution of the country. He said that all the parties in DPC were absolutely peace-loving and would ensure all of its activities would be carried out peacefully.
Speaking on the occasion, Hafiz Saeed said that the long March was only postponed earlier because the leaders of the parties in DPC had decided to use that tool on an appropriate occasion. He said that it was not only the United State but also India was also interfering in country and was equally involved in activities for destabilizing the country.
He said that Pakistan would never be allowed to become an Indian market because Pakistan was a sovereign state.
