LAHORE: Ameer Jamaat-e-Islami Senator Sirajul Haq in his message on Eid has urged the nation to once again rise with the spirit of the Pakistan Movement and strive to achieve the goal of creation of Pakistan.
Sirajul Haq said Eid was an occasion of sharing joys and happiness with others, especially the poor and the downtrodden. He said at present the society was full of injustice, poverty and helplessness. Scores of innocent people were being killed in bomb blasts and there was political chaos in the country. A neighbouring country was at war with us, he said, adding all these things had made the nation aggrieved and it had been denied its right to celebrate Eid as an independent nation. He said the main responsibility of this situation was on the Muslim rulers who were incompetent and had a slavish mentality.
JI chief said after Eid, he would reach people in every nook and corner of the country with the nation’s agenda and he fully hoped that the masses would support the JI in its plan.
