CHINIOT: Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman on Friday said that the Azadi March is a national level movement, something with which even the government’s allies agreed.
Addressing a presser in Chiniot on Friday, the JUI-F chief said that the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government was more corrupt than any other government in the world, adding that the debt taken by the government in its first year of office alone equalled the debt taken in the last 70 years.
“The country’s economic situation is unlikely to change if PTI continues its hold on power,” he said.
Fazl added that the government was targeting political rivals in corruption cases primarily to draw attention away from its failure to govern.
“Whole country is suffering as a result of PTI’s misguided policies,” he said, adding that the government’s Ehsaas Saylani Langar Scheme was also another ploy to divert the public’s attention.
Earlier this week, the JUI-F chief had announced that the date of the Azadi March had been changed from Oct 27 to Oct 31, stating that nationwide rallies would be observed by his party’s provincial chapters to express solidarity with the people of Indian occupied Kashmir (IOK) on the 27th.
