LAHORE: Secretary General Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan, Liaqat Baloch demanded of the President Asif Zardari to dissolve the national and provincial assemblies and announce the election schedule.
In a statement issued from Mansoora on Monday, he said due to the dual citizenship and fake degrees the Parliament had lost its credibility so the president should announce new election process. He said that elections for local government before the national elections would be a useless democratic process.
He said the time has come that a consensus caretaker set up be established, ECP be authorized financially and administratively and free and fair elections be ensured.
Appreciating the PTI peace march towards Waziristan he said a change in national policy is needed to stop the drone attacks and US slavery. “Stoppage of PTI march is no to democracy and all political parties should be allowed to work in Waziristan,” he added.
He said opposition parties including PML-N and JUI-F had passed anti US resolutions and now they must avoid taking steps that ended in favour of the US and the president Zardari.
Liaqat Baloch condemned the firing incident in Khairpur which took several lives including political workers and journalists.
He expressed his deep sorrow over the killing of innocent people and demanded of the government to bring the culprits to justice as soon as possible.
