Hafiz Naeem urges national dialogue to address country’s issues
Ji Chief says that issues cannot be resolved by using force
Lahore: Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) chief Hafiz Naeemur Rehman on Thursday called for national dialogue to steer the country out of prevailing crises.
Addressing a press conference in Lahore, Naeem said that the issues cannot be resolved by using force and therefore national dialogue is need of the hour.
He said, “The country is facing severe crisis of electricity and gas and it is all because of the incompetence of ruling elite,” adding that JI staged historical sit-in over the exorbitant power bills.
“The government has left with only 17 days to implement the agreement signed with us related to the electricity bills. We’ll once again launch our movement if the agreement isn’t implemented,” he said.
The JI had earlier staged sit-in in Rawalpindi over the inflated power bills.
