Inflation, unemployment, price hike & skyrocketing production costs have become a torment for the people: Liaqat Baloch

LAHORE, Jan 18 (SABAH): Deputy Chief of Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan, Secretary General Milli Yakjehti Council Liaqat Baloch while addressing the participants of the Central Consultative Meeting at Mansura and the All Parties Conference organized by Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam Samiul Haq (JUI-S) said that the Objectives Resolutions, the Constitution of Pakistan, the recommendations of the Council of Islamic Ideology (CII) have provided a solid foundation. It is a national tragedy that the rulers are not serious about implementing it and do not have good intentions. That is why today the nation is divided, secularism, bigotry, sectarianism and groupings are being patronized, and the society has fallen victim to extremism due to uncertainty, lawlessness and deprivation of justice. The only solution is the supremacy of Islam, Qur’an and Sunnah and full implementation of the Constitution of Pakistan.

Liaqat Baloch said that after the failures of military governments, PPP, Muslim League governments, the whole nation had high expectations from Imran Khan and PTI. The Establishment unabashedly supported and patronized the PTI to get the country out of the crisis, but it is writings on the wall that Imran Khan Sarkar betrayed the system of the State of Medina (Riyasat-e Madina), poisoned the politics with slander, extremism, violence and revenge. He neither has the vision nor the team to run the government. Today, the country has been mortgaged to the IMF by adopting a failed, dysfunctional, outdated economic strategy. Inflation, unemployment, price hike and skyrocketing production costs have become a torment for the people. Imran Khan’s government has failed to provide a reliable, empowered local government system and ideal relations between the federal and the provinces; and in practice bribery, corruption and status quo have been made horrible.

Liaqat Baloch said that the world should recognize the victory of the Afghan people in Afghanistan and the Afghan government should be recognized. Afghanistan’s economic blockade is a conspiracy to impose a new wave of war, unrest and turmoil in the region. The Pakistani government should come out of the American and European pressure and recognize the Afghan government. China, Russia, Iran, Saudi Arabia and Turkey should be united with Pakistan to formulate a strategy for stability in the region. Time is running out, crises are getting worse.
