Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) on Tuesday submitted two adjournment motions to Senate Secretariat expressing concerns over the report of Transparency International ranking Pakistan 34th in the global list of most corrupt countries and repeated bomb attacks on shrines of saints in the country.
The motions have been submitted by JI's Senators Professor Khurshid Ahmed and Professor Ibrahim based on media reports. In the first motion, the JI expressed concerns over the report of Transparency International that highlighted corruption of Rs 300 billions in various federal institutions during the last one year.
The motions said that most of the corrupt institutions are National Highway Authority (NHA), Pakistan Electric Power Company (PEPCO), Rental Power Projects and Oil and Gas Development Company Limited (OGDCL). The Senators expressed shock that on one side people of the country were becoming poorer day by day and necessary commodity items becoming not approachable for common man while on the other, the 'incapable' rulers were busy in 'plundering.'
Similarly, in the second adjournment motion, the JI's Senators have also expressed serious reservations over the bomb attack outside the holy shrine of a saint-Baba Fareed Gunj Shakar in Pakpattan that resulted in loss of eight innocent lives.
