SIALKOT: Mr Ashraf Naz, Secretary-General, All-Pakistan Students Federation said here yesterday [Nov 28], the entire community had to suffer a lot due to the irresponsible activities of misguided elements.

Addressing a press conference he said the students were great patriots and their profound love for the country and the nation was above board. They should not become a party to any move which endangered national integrity and freedom. He said, internal disruption and national disunity might prove disastrous for Pakistan under the existing state of affairs. Mr Naz said, an overwhelming majority of the students in Sialkot was gravely concerned over the prevalent situation which had resulted in continued dislocation of their precious studies.

Mr Naz said, the students believed in peaceful means for the acceptance of their legitimate demands and they had nothing to do with the power politics among various political parties.

He appealed to the Government to accept the just demands of the students without further loss of time and release all students arrested during the disturbances. — Agency
