Senator Sirajul Haq demands education emergency in the country

Senator Sirajul Haq demands education emergency in the countryLahore: Ameer, Jamaat e Islami, Pakistan, Senator Sirajul Haq, has called for declaring education emergency in the country and allocating highest budget after defense for promoting literacy and to raise the standard of education.

He was addressing a reception hosted at the Syed Maudoodi Institute for the new entrants to the institute.

Sirajul Haq said that the standard of education could not be raised by handing over educational institutions to the aliens. He said the western NGOs were depriving our youth of their faith and ideology in the name of education and the government had given them a free hand to achieve their evil designs.   There could not be a greater misfortune than handing over our new generation to the enemy, he remarked. JI deputy chief Hafiz Muhammad Idrees and the Institute Principal Dr Shabbir Ahmed Mansoori, also spoke on the occasion.

Referring to corruption and mal-governance of the rulers, the JI chief said that the attention of the rulers was entirely on projects which consumed steel, instead of brain. He said if the ranks of the government were full of plunderers, who would trace corruption.  However, he said, if those travelling in limousines and living in palaces were hauled up, all the traces of corruption could be found out. Corruption is done not by the common man but by those occupying high offices and in the corridors of power, he added.

Sirajul Haq said that the rulers who were securing heavy loans from the IMF and World Bank feared the Zionist institutions but not Allah Almighty. When fresh loan was approved form them, their joy knew no bounds and the Finance Minister made this announcement on the TV as if he had liberated Kashmir. These rulers pledging the nation’s future against loans did not have any policy of their own as all their policies were made by the IMF and the World Bank. However, as and when the country was in trouble, these rulers would flee from the country.

The JI chief said the colonial powers were converting our schools and colleges and into dance and fashion clubs though the NGOs. They were snatching from the youth their golden past and their heroes and injecting their own ideas into the minds of our young ones and the government was patronizing exploitation and class based education system in the country, he added.

Referring to the lack of facilities in government schools and colleges, Sirajul Haq said, had the children of the rulers and bureaucrats been studying in government schools and colleges, they would not be without boundary walls and washrooms. He said the JI on coming into power, would introduce uniform education system all over the country.

The JI chief said that the education budget in Pakistan was one of the lowest in the world and even the war-ravaged Afghanistan was spending more on education that this country. He said the ruling elite was keeping the youth illiterate, forcing them to go to Gulf States for odd jobs.

He said the present system of exploitation and oppression had been going on for the last 68 years because the masses had been voting for the corrupt elite, the feudal lords, vaderas and capitalists.  He said the lot of the common man would not improve unless the masses voted for honest and competent people from within themselves.

Sirajul Haq paid rich tributes to the services of the former JI chiefs Mian Tufail Muhammad, Qazi Hussain Ahmed and Syed Munawar Hasan, for the Institute.

He said that the students graduating from the Syed Maudoodi Institute were occupying high positions in more than twenty countries of the world and they were messengers of the country and the Islamic movement.  He hoped that the institute would soon get the status of a university.
