Jamaat-e-Islami Chief Senator Sirajul Haq has said that bad governance and flawed economic policies have become the trademarks of the PTI government.
Addressing an inauguration ceremony of a hospital in Bhimber Azad Kashmir, he said the prime minister who used to say he would never beg from international institutions borrowed whopping $ 16 billion foreign loans in just one year. “The country’s debt and liabilities have surged to trillions of dollars. The PTI broke all previous records of getting loans.” Siraj lamented that the IMF has virtually taken control of the all government affairs and rulers were insisting on not to mend their ways.
The overall situation has rendered the public in a helpless situation, he said, adding the prices of basic commodities and medicines went beyond the public reach.
He said the education and health sectors were on the verge of collapse as the federal and provincial government paid no attention to bring reforms in them. He said the JI would ensure free basic health facilities if voted to power.
The senator regretted that worst atrocities were being committed in Indian Held Kashmir for six months but the international community was acting as a silent spectator.
He said on one side Indian forces were committing worst human rights violations in held region while on the other side the harsh weather playing havoc in the AJK. But, he said, the rulers sitting in Islamabad’s luxury officers were showing least interest in raising voice for the Kashmiris.
In the prevailing circumstance, he said, the people of Pakistan must extend their full support to their Kashmir brethren. JI Northern Punjab chapter Ameer Dr Tariq Saleem also addressed on occasion.
The ceremony was attended by known social personalities of the area including Dr Abdul Aziz and Dr Abdur Rahman.–PR
