PESHAWAR: Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Pakistan Ameer Hafiz Naeemur Rehman, has warned the government that they will not sit idle until the agreement is fulfilled, ARY News reported.
While speaking to a public gathering in Peshawar, Hafiz Naeem mentioned that there are 41 days left, and if the electricity prices are not reduced, they will ensure the public gets its due rights. He further added that if the government does not provide relief within these 41 days, he will not stop the public from heading to D-Chowk.
He said that a written agreement has been obtained from the government in front of the nation and the media, and this time it will not be like previous sit-ins.
He emphasized that Jamaat-e-Islami organizes and concludes its sit-ins independently, without waiting for any umpire’s signal, refereeing to former Prime Minister and founder of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Imran Khan’s saying that umpire ginger has been raised. The government was trying to turn the sit-in into a confrontation, but if relief is not provided, people from Karachi to Chitral will march to D-Chowk.
“We do not need any umpire; we will go ourselves and ensure the agreement is fulfilled,” stated Hafiz Naeemur Rehman.
