By Our Staff Reporter
KARACHI, Sept 12: The speakers at a seminar on Sunday urged the workers to join hands and forge unity among their ranks, so that struggle to create a just social order for all could be launched.
They were speaking at the seminar organized in memory of Comrade Nazir Abbasi by the Labour Party of Pakistan. Shaikh Saeed, Nisar Shah, Saleem Raza, Shehla Rizwan, Akhtar Hussain and others also spoke on the occasion. They said that attacks on the benefits and facilities available to the workers were spreading uncertainty and unrest in the society.
They said that the traditional politicians, in the present depressing scenario, had failed to provide any solution to improve the condition of the poor, so it was time that the people with new and revolutionary ideas should come forward and provide an alternative leadership to steer the society out of uncertainty.
They also criticized the military rulers and their supporters, who they alleged were misguiding the nation by saying that it was in the national interest that the president should retain his army uniform.
They said that the only way to check undemocratic forces was that all the progressive and democratic elements joined hand and presented a revolutionary and workable democratic programme, so that the country could be saved from the existing exploitative system.
