No religious party supports terrorism, claims Siraj

BADIN: Emir Jamaat-i-Islami (JI) and senior provincial minister Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Sirajul Haq Tuesday said that no religious party supports terrorism and all possible assistance would be extended to the government for elimination of terrorism from the country.

Addressing “Save the Thar” rally here, Haq said that the real solution of every problem being faced by Pakistan lies within ‘true Islamic system of governance’.

While visiting the Army Public School and the hospital where children were being treated following the deadly Taliban attack earlier this month, Haq had said it was the responsibility of the federal and provincial governments to provide security to the people.

“A government, which can’t provide security to its children, has no right to rule,” he said.

The JI chief, during his trip to the famine-hit Tharparkar district today, urged the federal and provincial governments to take effective measures to prevent more deaths in Thar. Hospitals in Thar are not only lacked medicines but doctors were not performing their duties either, he observed.
