TOBA TEK SINGH, April 20: The leader of a banned outfit has urged the government and religious parties to do some serious thinking to curb sectarianism.

Released after six-month detention on Thursday, Millat Islamia Pakistan chief Maulana Muhammad Ahmad Ludhianvi suggested formation of a commission, mainly comprising judges, to end Shia-Sunni disputes.

Addressing a press conference at Jamia Farooqia, Kamalia, he stated that all major leaders of Millat Islamia and its 1700 activists had already been murdered.

He said that a committee had been formed under late Maulana Sattar Khan Niazi during the Nawaz Sharif rule which had proposed that all objectionable literature published by both sects should be confiscated immediately and in future its publication be banned. “But it could not implemented due to the removal of Nawaz Shari.”
