ISLAMABAD: Jamaat e Islami Ameer Sen
ator Sirajul Haq, has said
that the major terrorist attack in the Punjab capital
on Monday proved the government’s failure to protect the life and property of the masses and serious security lapses.
Talking to the med
ia outside the parliament on Tuesday, he said the suicide attack in the Punjab capital belied the government’s claims of having wiped out terrorism. He said it was evident
that the things were not under government’s control. He said the situation warranted
that the government took the nation into confidence in this regard and explain its position.
He said the repeated terrorist attacks implied that law and order were not the priority of the government and all the ministers were busy in the defence of the ruling family.
To a question on US refusal to issue a visa to Deputy Chairman Senate Maulana
Abdul Ghafoor Haideri, the JI chief said that Donald Trump’s policies would soon usher in the downfall of the United States as Soviet leader Gorbachev’s policies led to the downfall of the Soviet Union.
On the FATA issue, Sirajul Haq said there was a consensus among the tribes for the merger of tribal areas with Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and on the abolition of the FCR. The government should not miss this golden opportunity for their merger.
