LAHORE: Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) chief Sirajul Haq said on Sunday why the ministers were raising hue and cry now as they had distributed sweets when the Joint Investigation Team (JIT) was constituted.
He said the nation had been forced to trade its honour and respect due to the current government’s policies.
Addressing a convention, he said that the nation needed to ponder who was responsible for the deprivation of country’s poor.
“The rulers are spending millions of rupees to show that Punjab has improved. But I am deeply saddened when I see people lying on footpaths living a deprived life," he lashed out at the Punjab government.
He stressed the country’s rulers did not care about the government. The JI chief also remarked that corrupt individuals kept on switching their political loyalties and stressed for elimination of corruption from the country.
