End
of Military rule very close: Liaqat Baloch
LAHORE, Nov. 2: Jamaat Islami
Punjab ameer Liaqat Baloch said that the feelers about Emergency,
PCO and Martial law suggest that military rulers have realized
they cannot last any longer against the growing public demand for
them to quit power.
He was talking
with newsmen on Friday at the 3-day JI members convention at
Shamki Bhattian. He asked for how long the army could use cannon
and guns against 160 million people of Pakistan. He said the final
battle for the rights of people will be fought on the streets and
people will never accept any extra-constitutional measure.
He said MMA is
a religious alliance and any mistake of temporary political
measure will never deviate the alliance from its long term goal of
Shariah enforcement. He said next MMA supreme council meeting will
remove all misunderstandings and difficulties among the allies
besides chalking out a collective strategy to struggle against the
military dictatorship.
He said law and
order situation got worse in Tribal Areas, Balochistan and Swat
only because of the incompetence of the rulers and their managers
who tried to control public sentiments through bullets. He said
Jamai Hafsa massacre was one of the worst measures and tragedy by
the military rulers. Similarly, he said, the bomb blasts in
Karachi, Islamabad, and other areas of the country were also part
of the serious conspiracy against the country.
He said the
military rulers and their allies implementing US agenda in the
country are bound to fail in the coming elections since people
want Shariah in the country and will reject them completely. He
said Gen Musharraf and Benazir Bhutto have caused serious damage
to the country by implementing US agenda.
He said Gen
Musharraf invited doubts and suspicion by not holding judiciary
inquiry into the Karachi massacre of May 12 and bomb blasts of Nov
18. However, he said, the Suo Moto notice of Supreme Court on
Karachi blasts was a welcome measure and now all eyes are on the
apex court. He said the JI workers convention will cast far
reaching effects on national politics and provide a new direction
to the people to struggle against the dictators and realize their
rights. |
