The custodian of Golra Sharif shrine on Saturday dissociated himself from the long march of Tehreek-e-Minhajul Quran chief Dr Tahirul Qadri.
Addressing a news conference, Pirs of Golra Sharif shrine Pir Jalaluddin and Pir Nizamuddin Jami said they and their followers had nothing to do with Qadri’s long march.
They also urged their followers to stay away from the long march and added that the statements of Dr Qadri were self-contradictory.
They said basic objective of Qadri’s long march was to secure the slot of prime minister for himself.
“We are a religious family and have nothing to do with politics,” they said.
The custodian of the shrine also advised Ulema to abstain form joining the long march.
