of the farmers’ problems, he added.
JI chief said that the ruling elite had been plundering public wealth and had made the country bankrupt and then acquired huge loans from the IMF and the World Bank, thus bringing the country and the nation under heavy debts. He said that the banks granted loans to the wealthy while the small peasants remained high and dry and did not have enough money to purchase seeds, fertilizer and pesticides. As a result, the farm produce suffered, he added.
Shoora: Central Shoora of Jamaat e Islami has expressed deep anguish over the bloodletting and civil war being spread all over the Muslim Ummah.
A resolution adopted at JI Shoora meeting at Mansoorah said the forces of world colonialism occupying Palestine, Kashmir, Afghanistan and Iraq had already spread destruction and a conspiracy was hatched to divide and demolish the Masjid al Aqsa. On the other hand, the Muslim rulers in Egypt, Syria, Bangladesh, Yemen, Libya and Tajikistan were perpetrating tyranny on their own people.
The resolution condemned the brutalities in Syria for the last four years that had caused the death of around three lakh people while millions others had been forced to migrate to other states. The JI central decision making body deplored that in such a situation, some Muslims states and world powers including Russia were taking sides instead of trying to end the bloodshed.
It noted that a similar situation was going on in Iraq, Egypt, Libya. More than forty thousand Egyptian citizens had been put behind bars while so-called courts were handing them death sentences. All the time, the so called world powers are following the US dual policy and double standards. Egyptian military dictator Gen. Sisi, after committing crimes against his own people, is also targeting Gaza citizens and in support of the Zionists, had stopped all movement of the Gaza people. Recently, deep ditches have been dug out on the Gaza boundaries thus annihilating the residents of the area, it added.
The Shoora said that the situation was being further compounded by the rise of some armed groups whose emergence remained questionable on many counts, and who were declaring all others infidels and using the terminology of Islamic State, Islamic Caliphate and Jihad, thus making all these as contemptible in the eyes of the world at large.
