The growing popularity of Army Chief General Raheel Sharif seems to have gone beyond street banners and social media praises, as a group of people in Islamabad have earmarked a piece of land to build a mosque in his name.
Locals of Rawalpindi’s Ghori Town Phase-III, belonging to Khokhar clan, have allocated a piece of their ancestral land to construct a mosque ‘Jamia Masjid Gen Raheel Sharif, Madrassa Jamia Darul Amn.’
These people are strongly opposed to Imtiaz Ali alias Taji Khokhar, a notorious criminal.
Safdar Khokhar, who is heading a local group Tehreek-i-Nijat Qabza Mafia, had decided to name the mosque after the army chief because “he is a national hero and working against corruption and land mafias”.
A piece of two kanals of land belonging to Safdar has been allocated for the mosque. Safdar told that the whole locality would be contributing to establish the mosque and the seminary.
