Jamaat-e-Islami Secretary General, Liaqat Baloch, said on Tuesday that the class struggle caused by the feudal and capitalist economic system was pushing the country towards civil disobedience and revolt. Addressing the traders and notables from NA 126, he said that a vast majority of the people were deprived of their basics rights of water, education, health facilities and security of life and property.
The prices of electricity, POL ad gas were sky high and around 42 per cent of the people were living below poverty line. But the federal and the provincial governments had no plan to bring the country out of the mess nor did they have a team for the purpose.
He said that during the last 64 years, the JI had carried out intensive research in governance and prepared a team of honest and dedicated people who had the skill to carry out public welfare projects. If the masses supported the JI, it would break the begging bowl and lead the country towards self reliance, building it a model state on the pattern of the Madina state.
Liaqat Baloch said that the aim of the JI's economic policy was to end collective injustice, tyranny and exploitation, and make the masses shareholders in national wealth. The right of the Balochistan people on their resources would be recognised in order to involve them in national development.
Later, the JI Secretary General led a mass prayer at the Masjid-e-Shohada for the army personnel trapped at Siachin. The prayer was organised by the Shabab e Milli and was joined by hundreds of people. Speaking on the occasion, Liaqat Baloch said that the whole nation was praying for the safety of the army jawans and had full sympathies with their families.
