JUP vows to continue struggle for Islam

By Bureau Report


HYDERABAD, July 18: Sindh Jamiat Ulema-i-Pakistan president MNA Dr Sahibzada Abul Khair Mohammad Zubair has said party workers have been struggling for 40 years for enforcement of Nizam-i-Mustafa (PBUH) in the country.

He was talking to workers on the first death anniversary of party activist Waziruddin here on Sunday. Dr Zubair, who is also a member of the Muttahida Majlis-i-Amal supreme council, said the JUP was not interested in politics of plots, permits and employments but in the enforcement of the Nizam-i-Mustafa (PBUH).

He said this was the reason that the JUP workers had always been victimized. He said under the leadership of the late Allama Shah Ahmad Noorani, the workers had struggled for supremacy of Islam and they would continue their struggle in furtherance of this objective.

"Our goal is not Islamabad but Islam," the MNA said. He added that the day was not far when the Nizam-i-Mustafa (PBUH) would be enforced in the country in letter and spirit.

MPA Abdur Rehman Rajput, Al-Khadim group chairman Hussain Bux Hussain, Mohammad Ibrahim Shaikh and others also spoke on the occasion. Meanwhile, JUP leader Mohammad Hussain Qureshi has lashed out at elements who, according to him, have unleashed a false propaganda against Hyderabad City Taluka Nazim Moinuddin Shaikh.

In a statement issued here on Sunday, he said these people should work for development of the city instead of criticizing the taluka nazim. He said the nazim was serving people with commitment.

REHABILITATION: Families displaced during ethnic riots of 1988-90 observed a token hunger strike outside the press club here on Sunday protesting against lack of efforts to rehabilitate them.

They appealed to the Sindh chief minister to implement the rehabilitation plan for displaced families which was chalked out by the late chief minister, Jam Sadiq Ali.

Talking to journalists, Saran and others said during the regime of Jam Sadiq Ali a plan was prepared to rehabilitate the remaining 650 displaced families but it was never implemented by successive governments. They said they would hold a silent protest demonstration outside the Sindh Assembly during its next session.
