The financial terrorists are more dangerous for the country: Siraj ul Haq

Lahore : Ameer, Jamaat e Islami, Pakistan, Senator Sirajul Haq, has said that the political and financial terrorists sitting in the corridors of power were far more dangerous for the county than the militants hiding in the mountains.

He was addressing senior journalists and columnists at an Iftar dinner hosted by him at a local hotel.

Sirajul Haq said that the political terrorists had divided the nation into groups on regional, ethnic and sectarian grounds under the western powers’ strategy of  divide and rule. He said that the country at present needed a complete national unity and harmony.

The JI chief said that the elite ruling the county for the last seventy years had turned Pakistan  into a country full of problems and the very existence of Pakistan was in danger because of their ideological and moral corruption. The elements responsible for the creation of Bangladesh had now become a security risk for the present Pakistan.

He said that the people involved in Panama leaks, the owners of off shore companies and the families getting huge bank loans written off were a cancer for the country in whose presence the country could not grow.  He said the JI was fighting against corruption to get rid of these elements.

The JI chief said that the weaknesses of the parliamentary system had led to the rise of numerous crimes. The country was facing poverty, unemployment, illiteracy and load shedding.

He said the rulers were claiming that the country was producing 18500 MW record electricity and the demand for the electricity was around 19500. He asked why full day load shedding was being carried out to meet the shortfall of only one thousand megawatt.

Sirajul Haq said that the problems of poverty and insecurity could be overcome by making Pakistan an Islamic Pakistan and added that an Islamic Pakistan alone could keep all the provinces united. .
