Says tough phase of rehabilitation of flood victims has yet to come
Jamiat Ulema Islam Fazl (JUI-F) Chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman has stressed for collective efforts to deal with situation aroused after the recent record floods and heavy rains which caused wide-spread destruction to the infrastructure of the country. Talking to media here at Nizami House, he said the whole nation was passing through mental agony due to the loss of lives and property caused by the recent floods.
He lauded the services of all JUI-F organizations regarding the relief activities in flood-hit areas, saying the workers of his party were active at union council level and extending relief to the flood victims as a movement. He said the tough and very important phase of rehabilitation of flood victims has yet to come.
Earlier on his arrival at Nizami House, Maulana Fazlur Rehman was welcomed by Kafeel Ahmad Nizami, Haji Nizamuddin and Haji Imam Din. The JUI-F chief said it was his stance from the very first day that the politics should be avoided by all the political parties and the relief and rehabilitation of the flood victims should be the focus of everyone.
He regretted that leader of a political party was saying that the flood was not his problem and instigating the people against the state.
