FAISALABAD: Leaders of Religio-political parties and clerics of Difa-e-Ummat Conference on Friday vowed to launch a campaign against the US’s supply line in Pakistan that it uses to support its presence in Afghanistan.
The conference arranged by Difa-e-Pakistan Council (DPC) was held at Dhobi Ghat Ground and was attended by a number of people.
The conference was held amid tight security by the JuD ‘volunteers’ who also looked after the other administrative affairs.
The speakers of the conference said they will start a massive campaign for the liberation of Jerusalem and Kashmir while endorsing Jamaatud Dawa (JuD) chief and alleged mastermind of Mumbai attack Hafiz Saeed’s stance on Kashmir.

He also announced to unite all religio-political parties on one platform for the country’s defence.
JuD chief Hafiz Saeed also addressed the participants. He said, “Pakistan is a blessing of Allah; however today it faces a critical period. Every Pakistani has to come out and put in efforts for its defence.”
He also urged workers to be ready for spreading his so-called message of the country’s protection, in case of his arrest or detention.
Calling Indian PM Narendra Modi a ‘real terrorist’, Saeed claimed he was labeled as a terrorist by the Modi-led government only because he talked about freedom of Kashmir.
