Ameer Jamaat-i-Islami Syed Munawar Hasan, and JI Secretary General, Liaqat Baloch, have expressed deep grief over the sad demise of hero of the 1965 war Squadron Leader M M Alam, who had demolished the Indian Air Force by shooting down its five fighters within one minute.
In a condolence message on Monday, they said that M M Alam had performed a miraculous job that had raised the country's image in the comity of nations. They said India had attacked Pakistan in the darkness of night with the hope that it would capture Lahore, the Punjab capital within hours, but the brave Pakistani soldiers shattered its unholy dreams and it was compelled to approach the United Nations for a cease-fire. The JI Ameer paid rich homage to M.M. Alam for his services to the nation and the country. Meanwhile, the JI leadership has condemned the bomb blast at Peshawar and expressed condolences with the bereaved families.
