SUKKUR: JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman on Thursday, addressing the Babul Islam Conference in Sukkur, said the people’s mandate was stolen in the February 8 elections, adding that JUI-F’s National Assembly seats were reduced from 16 to 8.

He said that the JUI-F rejected the elections as manipulated, adding that the national as well as foreign observers also termed the elections ‘fake’. He asked the government to step down and handover reins of the government to JUI-F. “We will bring prosperity and development in the country.”

He said that only the people of Sindh have the right to the resources of Sindh, adding that no one else has the right to usurp the rights of the people of Sindh.

“If any movement starts, I will be at the forefront. I want to tell the establishment and arrogant politicians to get out of the way, we will take care of the country.

Accept your failure, the country is bleeding due to wrong method of governance,” he said. The JUIF chief further said the country was being pushed into anarchy, adding that state is losing its writ and the country was heading towards blind alley.

He further said the situation in KP and Balochistan was not good as the rulers have failed to control it.

He said that JUIF believes in tolerance in politics and flexibility in talks, adding that every political party has a right to hold rallies and exercise their right to protest.

He further said they were assured that bullets would not be used against protesters, “then why they used bullets at D Chowk. “JUI-F condemned the unlawful action against PTI workers.”

He said that the incumbent parliamentarians and their patrons were exploiting the Constitution and passing laws suitable to their vested interests.

Meanwhile, JUIF leaders Maulana Rashid Mahmood Soomro, Moulana Asad Mahmood, Abdul Ghafoor Hyderi, Dr Ibrahim Jatoi and others also addressed the conference and said that they will not allow anyone to build canals on the Indus River.
