President Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Central Punjab Qamar Zaman Kaira has said that the PPP is with JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman till this government is sent back home.
He said this while addressing the media in front of National Press Club Islamabad on Thursday expressing solidarity with the teachers of Basic Education Community Schools. He was accompanied by Chaudhary Manzoor Hussain, Syed Hassan Murtaza, Nazir Dhoki, Iftikhar Shehzada, Shaista Khosa and Saima Raja.
Qamar Zaman Kaira said that after the doctors, laborers, teachers and students the political parties are protesting against this government on the streets. Now, the end of this government is certain.
He said that it is ironic that a teacher is paid less than a laborer in this country. These teachers have not been paid for the last 10 months and PPP demands the payment of their salary at once.
The PPP Central Punjab President said that government has locked down the capital by putting containers alongside every main road. He said that a few protesting teachers have been arrested last night and demanded for their immediate release. He assured legal assistance to the teachers from PPP.
