LAHORE: Secretary General of the Jamaat e Islami, Liaqat Baloch has exhorted the Pakistanis working abroad to present the best of character and behavior in order to raise the image of the homeland abroad. He was addressing the Pakistani community and the Ahbab e Pakistan, in Madina Munawarah, on Sunday.
Liaqat Baloch said that the rule of law in accordance with the teachings of the Holy Quran and the Sunnah ensured intellectual, economic and social protection to the human beings. On the other hand, injustice and tyranny were the greatest maladies of the society.
He said that liberating the country from the clutches of corrupt, self-centered and insensitive class of the society was imperative to help solve the problems facing the Pakistani immigrants abroad. In reply to a question, Liaqat Baloch said that the CPEC was undoubtedly a great plan for economic and social progress but it must be executed keeping in view the requirements and the rights of all parts of this country.
He said that in the 2013 elections, the national politics had a setback due to which the national unity and the country’s Islamic character suffered. Therefore, the Islam loving and patriotic parties and those having a national outlook would have to play an important role in the 2018 elections. He said that the JI was already in touch with the Ulema, Mashaikha, and other religious parties. He expressed the hope that in the 2018 elections, the masses would get rid of the Panama leaks affected, corrupt and anti-people system and leadership.
