DI KHAN: Central Ameer Jaimatul Islam (JUIF), Maulana Fazlur Rehman here Tuesday said that his party will defend democracy and will extend full support to PMLN Government for the cause of national development and resolution of problems faced by the country.
Addressing a big public gathering of PMLN and JUIF workers on occasion of the ground-breaking ceremony of DI Khan-Halka Motorway performed by Prime Minister Muhammad Nawaz Sharif during his visit to DI Khan at Yarik area today, Maulana Fazlur Rehman said difference of opinion was the right of opposition but it should be within the democratic norms.
“Unjustified criticism may strengthen hands of those elements who are trying to derail democratic system for achievement of their ulterior motives,” he said, adding JUIF would strongly resist such elements and will not allow them to derail existing political system established after enormous sacrifices by the political leadership of the country.
He advised the opposition to avoid unjustified criticism and not cross their limits, saying the time demands of showing extreme political maturity and wisdom to take the country out of existing challenges and put it on road to progress and development.
Maulana Fazlur Rehman said a handful of elements were trying to enter the power corridors through backdoors and conquer the politics through agitation but such elements would not success in their anti democratic designs.
“Such agitated elements did not even know about use of political dialogue and selection of words,” he said.
Maulana Fazl reaffirmed that his party will support PMLN Government for the cause of national development and resolution of country’s problems.
Maulana Fazlur Rehman paid rich tributes to the bold stance adopted by the Prime Minister on the issue of Panama leaks, saying the PM has made politics of opponents issue less after his Govt write a letter to Chief Justice to investigate the issue.
He said Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif was the first ruler in the world who presented himself for accountability by writing a letter to the Chief Justice to probe Panama leaks besides proposing formation of a joint parliamentary committee for preparation of consensus and comprehensive TORs for establishment of enquiry commission to investigate the matter.
The JUIF chief said opposition parties instead to reciprocate to the good well-gesture of premier has fled away from the scene that was tantamount of their failure to face and prove their baseless allegations in the commission.
He said PTI Government has failed to address problems of masses in Khyber Pakthunkhwa. It was the first time in the history of the KP that PCS officers boycotted to perform government functions as a mark of protest against PTI Govt for not solving their problems, he added. “When a Government can’t address problems of their employees and officers how it would bring positive change in the province and make new KPK,” he remarked.
The JUIF Chief said CPEC was a game changer and life line project for the country that will change destiny of people of Khyber Pakthunkhwa including DI Khan district. He said time was not far away when DI Khan would be linked with a railway track. He thanked the Prime Minister for announcing Agriculture University in DI Khan, inauguration of DI Khan-Halka motorway section and Rs770 million grant for gas supply schemes for DI Khan, announcement of Rs120 billion for multi dimensional Chisma Right Bank Canal (CRBC) and allocation of Rs80 million for feasibility studies of Tank-Zam dam.
Maulana Fazlur Rehman and Federal Minister for Communication Akram Khan Durrani on behalf of people of DI Khan also thanked Prime Minister for announcing Rs500 million development fund for DI Khan district, starting of feasibility study for construction of flood protection walls and up-gradation of facilities in DI Khan International Airport. These projects, they said, after completion would change destiny of people and bring prosperity in lives of people of DI Khan.
