LAHORE: Reiterating the demand for the restoration of student unions in the country, Chief of Jamaat-e-Islami Senator Sirajul Haq has said that the educational institutions could play a vital role in grooming the future leadership if the government remove bar on student organization activities in the campuses.
While addressing the central executive council of the Islami Jamiat Talba at Mansoora on Saturday, he said youth must stand firm against the injustices happening in every nook and corner of the country and play their role in transforming Pakistan into a modern welfare Islamic state.
He said the PTI government had not taken a single step to introduce reforms in the sector in past two years. He lamented the lack of educational facilities to poor, class based education system and insufficient budgetary allocations for the sector were the major hurdles to bring betterment in the sector.
He said had the PTI paid attention on the betterment of education and health sectors soon after coming into power, it would have succeeded in winning the public trust. But, he said, not only the PTI completely damaged the already fragile both sectors, it also set the worst examples of bad governance in the other departments too.
He said the law and order situation had worsened in the biggest province due to incapable governance. The PTI's claim to provide millions of jobs to youth and build thousands of houses also proved pack of lies, he said, adding people were desperate to get rid of this regime as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, JI Deputy Emir Liaqat Baloch said the tussles among different departments and politicians paralyzed Punjab and the province became epicentre of crimes.
The daily basis transfer posting of police officers further damaged the performance of police, he said, adding there was need to end the political interference in police to improve its performance.
