Hafiz Naeem says JI sit-ins aim to protect people's rights
“Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) emir Hafiz Naeem-ur-Rehman has said inflation has the life of people a hell. Speaking to the media after meeting with industrialists and traders here on Monday, Hafiz Naeem-ur-Rehm…”
He said the price of everything increases as petrol becomes more expensive, so the petroleum levy should be abolished, loadshedding should be eliminated, and electricity and bread should be made cheaper. He said as a result of JI’s sit-in against IPPs, the people got relief in the electricity sector.
It is not possible that there is a sit-in and no one is affected. Hafiz Naeem-ur-Rehman said sit-ins are ongoing in Peshawar, Lahore, Karachi, Chitral, Hyderabad and Quetta, while protests are also taking place in various districts including Faisalabad and Islamabad.
He claimed that no political party except Jamaat-e-Islami has come out for the people. The country has the capacity to generate 49,000 megawatts of electricity, yet the worst loadshedding continues. He said the Sharif family has ruined the country.
