The Milli Yakjehti Council, a conglomeration of about a dozen religious organizations, has decided to launch a movement for converting Pakistan into a model state on the pattern of the State of Madina in line with the election promise of the PTI. The decision was taken by the MYC Supreme Council at a meeting at Mansoora, presided over by the president Sahibzada Abul Khair Zubair.
The meeting set up an action committee headed by JI deputy chief Liaqat Baloch, to work out the line of action and programme in this respect. While addressing a press conference after the meeting, Sahibzada Dr Abul Khair Zubair said that the conspiracies to push the religious parties to the wall and against religious values had reached the climax as colonial powers had made this country their target. He said that unfortunately, the rulers, instead of trying to counter these conspiracies, were acting as agents of world powers. The Islamic signs and values were being ridiculed. The term the state of Madina was being ridiculed the most as the Prime Minister had himself gone back on his word in this regard.
The MYC chief said that the political, economic, social, educational and judicial systems in the country were not in harmony with the Islamic teachings. Sahibzada Abul Khair Zubair greeted Ameer, Jamaat-e-Islami, Pakistan Senator Sirajul Haq, for the passage of his resolutions in the Senate against interest and adopting of Urdu as medium for the CSS exams.
The MYC president strongly condemned the atrocities of Indian forces in Kashmir and those of Israeli forces in Gaza and said that the silence of the international human rights bodies in this respect proved their enmity towards Islam. He called for immediate pull out of the US forces from Afghanistan.
He also expressed deep concern over the conspiracies against the faith in Khatme Nubuwwat. Speaking on the occasion, MYC Secretary General Liaqat Baloch said that the government had drifted away from basic Islamic principles and the constitution while the Prime Minister had taken a U turn over his promise about the state of Madina The meeting offered fateha for the former Egyptian President Dr Mursi and JI leader Dr Syed Waseem Akhtar.
