ISLAMABAD: Amid Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman’s call for anti-government protest, Interior Minister Ijaz Ahmed Shah on Tuesday said that the government cannot be thrown on personal wishes.
While addressing a presser alongside State Minister Overseas Pakistanis Syed Zulfiqar Abbas Bukhari, Shah said: “The government can’t be toppled on anyone’s demand. Those who are launching the protest march are against the country.”
“The timing of Rehman’s sit-in isn’t appropriate whereas the conditions during Imran Khan’s sit-in were entirely different,” he cleared.
The interior minister warned that Section 144 has been imposed in Islamabad’s Blue Area.
“I think Fazlur Rehman will not come to Islamabad on Oct 27,” he said while praising the Imran for being country’s first prime minister to talk about the welfare state of Madina”.
