HYDERABAD: Leaders of the Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) have condemned the objectionable and abusive language being used by lawmakers and politicians of mainstream political parties in the country.

It seemed as if no political party had any ideology in the country, they said while addressing local party leaders and workers here on Tuesday after successful centenary celebrations of the JUI-F at Azakhel, Nowshera, from April 7 to 9, also attended by one of the Imams of the Ka’aba.

“It is really a shame that senators, parliamentarians and politicians of mainstream political parties are using absolutely indecent, objectionable and abusive language.

Our workers cannot speak such words because of their good training,” said JUI-F Sindh chapter information secretary Maulana Taj Mohammad Nahiyoon.


‘Not a single political party in the country has ideology except for JUI-F’


He claimed that not a single political party had ideology in the country except for the JUI-F.

The history of the Pakistan Peoples Party, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz and the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf was not beyond Z.A. Bhutto, General Ziaul Haq and Imran Khan respectively, he said.

But it was the JUI-F which had a long history from Maulana Hussain Ahmed Madani to Fazlur Rahman.

When JUI-F Sindh secretary general Dr Khalid Mehmood Soomro was gunned down, party activists did not burn a single vehicle as “this is our training on principles”.

“No JUI-F leader or worker is involved in Panama leaks or NRO cases or any other scandals,” he said.

He said volunteers and activists of the party made all security arrangements for the centenary celebrations and made the event successful by giving a good message to the world.

If the party came in the corridors of power, it would run all matters in a better way.

JUI-F leaders Hafiz Khalid Hussain Dhamra, Hafiz Mohammad Azam Jehangiri and others also spoke.
