The Jamaat-e-Islami chief, Syed Munawar Hasan, has said the corrupt
rulers won’t be able to humble the Supreme Court as the 180 million
Pakistanis stood behind the judiciary.
The government would have to ultimately implement the SC decisions or the people would throw them out, he said while talking to the Pakistani community in Riyadh during his current visit to Saudi Arabia.
Syed Munawar Hasan said the government was compelling the apex court
to exercise its powers under article 190 of the Constitution which
won’t be something pleasant for the rulers.
The present government, he said, had destroyed the state
institutions and corruption had crept into all ranks. The President and
the Prime Minister had crossed all limits of nepotism. The parliament
had become redundant and the country had been turned into a US colony.
Price spiral was touching new heights and load shedding of gas and
electricity had ruined all business and industry. If the present rulers
remained in power for another two years, the things would go still
worse, he added.
He said, in spite of the prevailing conditions, the JI was not disappointed and it was looking for better days.
Referring to the Pak-India talks, the JI chief termed these a futile
exercise. India, he said, had a long history of delaying the solutions
of all issues including Kashmir under the cover of dialogue and the end
result of talks had always been a big Zero. The present talks too had
been born no fruit, he added. SANA
