NOWSHERA: The local activists and workers of Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam Fazl on Monday staged a protest rally against the law and order situation, target-killing, bomb explosions and unprecedented price-hike in the country.

JUIF district president Qari Muhammad Aslam Haqqani, Mufti Hakim Ali Haqqani and Pervez Khan Khattak were leading the protest rally.Addressing the rally, the speakers said that the law and order situation was worsening with each passing day in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa but the rulers had become silent spectators and were not taking any steps to restore lasting peace.

They expressed concern over the resurgence of terrorism, saying that the killing of innocent people in bomb explosions and target-killings had proved there was no writ of the state in the merged districts.

They criticised the government for the unprecedented hike in tariffs of electricity, gas and petroleum products due to which the prices of essential food items had increased manifold.

The protesters demanded an end to hours-long electricity load­shedding and natural

gas outages.
