He asked people to reject those elements who have snatched employment from the people of the city and disturbed the law and order situation.He claimed that the JI is the only hope for the people of the city. He also claimed that his party would not use government resources for increasing their property and assets like the previous governments, and would instead strengthen Karachi’s economic industry and institutions.He said that over 26,000 innocent Palestinians, including women and children, have been massacred in Gaza, but the Muslim world leaders have been maintaining a criminal silence.On the other hand, he added, the global forces are supporting Israel’s acts of terrorism and genocide.
