KARACHI: Milli Yatkjehti Council (MYC), Sindh strictly condemned the naked Indian aggression on the line of control and expressed solidarity to the Pakistan Army, saying that the entire nation is united in support of their beloved army.
Talking to media, after an important session of the council, MYC, Sindh and Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) deputy chief Asadullah Bhutto said on Thursday that the radical Indian ruling regime have been hatching nefarious conspiracies to divert attention of global community from the ongoing atrocities of its armed forces against civilians in the Indian Occupied Kashmir.
He also criticized the Indian government for its threats regarding Indus Water Treaty. The MYC leader stressed the government to freeze diplomatic and business relations with India and to highlight the Indian violations of human rights on international forums.
He told the media that religious clerics and tens of thousands of seminary students as well as people from all walks of life were determinant to safeguard each and every inch of their homeland.
The JI leader said that unity among the entire nation is the need of the hour particularly ahead of the holy month of Muharram-ul-Harram. He said that MYC appeals the Ulema and Zakirs to express exemplary tolerance and harmony so as to foil the conspiracies of Islam’s enemies.
Talking about the proposed legislation against religious seminaries, he said that the seminaries are source of patriotism in the society and said that they would be proved as the front line of defense of the country.
He said that no conspiracy to limit or ban the seminaries would be tolerated. He said that on one hand the government seems fail to register mushroomed non-governmental organizations in the province, while on other it seemed in hurry to lock down seminaries, which is a matter of great regret.
The MYC leader further said that the government is mulling to compel the religious clerics and Imams to deliver the Friday sermon, provided by the rulers, which according to him was tantamount to interference in religious affairs.
