He viewed that revival of MMA would help nation get rid of secular rulers.
Stressing the need of unity, JUI chief said US is killing Muslims through drone attacks but the rulers have adopted ‘apologetic’ attitude towards US and its allies. “More surprisingly, the US agents themselves were holding long march and that too in Waziristan instead of New York or London.
Talking about Malala, he said the way issue was taken up exposed the hidden hands behind it. “My party was the first to condemn attack on Malala, but why the world kept mum over the issue of Dr. Afia who is also an innocent girl and implicated in a false case.
