QUETTA: The Jamiat Ulema Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman on Saturday urged Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) co-chairman Asif Zardari to take notice of the conflict prevailing between Minister of the Interior Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan and the opposition and end confrontation.
While addressing the media after condoling the death of lawyers who lost their lives in the Quetta blast, Fazlur Rehman stated that the Civil Hospital incident was a tragic tale and that it would give rise to another chapter of suffering. He said that questions were being raised over the discriminatory portions of the National Action Plan (NAP), adding that reservations over the NAP were there before as certain discriminatory moves were made through this legislation which has made political, social and religious circles to raise questions over it.
The JUI-F chief said the battle against terrorism needs to be fought while remaining united. He stated that there were certain elements in the region which were against the establishment of peace. He said that the entire nation was looking towards the politicians at this hour, adding that all stakeholders must arrive at one page.
The Maulana suggested that PM Nawaz and Asif Zardari should play a role to lessen the prevailing conflict, adding that reformation was necessary instead of putting responsibility of the incident on one another.
