Rulers have learnt nothing from fall of Dhaka: Siraj

Author: Online

LAHORE: Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) chief Senator Sirajul Haq has said that the rulers have not learnt a lesson from the fall of Dhaka nor have they mended their ways after the country split into two.

Addressing the Friday congregation at Mansoora mosque, he said the smaller provinces of the country had a feeling of deprivation due to inequitable distribution of the resources. “Had the mandate of the Bengalis been accepted, the debacle of East Pakistan might not have occurred,” he maintained.

Sirajul Haq said that the enemy exploited the hatred, and as a result East Pakistan turned into Bangladesh. He said that the rulers would have to remove the sense of deprivation among the people of the smaller provinces to prevent such tragedies in the future.

The JI chief said that some people still hoped that they would succeed in hiding their illegal wealth and escape the Panama leaks scandal, but they were mistaken, as the nation was anxious to recover the illegal wealth from the corrupt rulers.

He said the findings of the Quetta inquiry commission had exposed incompetence of the government and this had further shaken the people’s confidence in the rulers.
