Sunni Tehreek urges PM to take on terrorists

KARACHI: Sarwat Ejaz Qadri, President Pakistan Sunni Tehreek has urged Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif to take on terrorists and extremists on urgent basis.

In a letter sent to the prime minister, Qadri said our beloved homeland, Pakistan, is facing extreme oppressing situation. At one hand, the terrorists are killing our people and on the other; the martyrs of our armed forces are being humiliated.

He said Pakistan Sunni Tehreek Ulema Board has appealed the Taliban many times to quit their arms and accept the constitutional supremacy of the Country and writ of the state. It will be a supporting stance to fight against the conspiracies of the foreign conspiracies. The constitution of Pakistan is an Islamic one made by the scholars of all the sects which abided the rulers to implement "Shariah". There should be a peaceful struggle within the premises of law and constitution to implement the Islamic clauses.

He invited the attention of government to lawlessness, sectarian killing and terrorism in the country. He said any government has not constituted any remarkable line of action to uproot these evils. The representative scholars and influential persons of all the sects should be sit at one table to resolve conflicts and controversial issues, whereas, the literature against Quran and Sunnah should be disposed of properly.

He also requested to declare blockage of Nato Supply and take action to stop drone attacks because the extremists justify their activities by giving these assumptions. He said the government writ should be established in Waziristan and other troubled areas. In these areas the equal opportunities and educational facilities should be provided to male and female members. The areas where extremists are in action, employment opportunities should be provided to unemployed youth. In such areas roads and other infrastructural facilities should be extended.

Pakistan Sunni Tehreek considers it the national obligation to co-operate with government and all stake-holders for the establishment of peace, he concluded. (PPI)
