Those who cannot go to jail shouldn't be in politics: Fazlur Rehman
He said the politics is not the name of cowardice but the name of courage, endurance and hope
ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) chairman and Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Moulana Fazlur Rehman on Thursday said that even one party can bring change with the support of masses.
Addressing a ceremony in Islamabad on Thursday, he said that the movements do not stop whether everyone sticks together or someone breaks away from the alliance.
The JUI-F chief said that the politics is not the name of cowardice but the name of courage, endurance and hope, adding that even one political party can bring change with the support of public.
“The journey towards the destination goes on,” he said and added the JUI-F will not disappoint the nation. He said: “If you are in politics, jail and power will also come your way, adding coming into government is not a revolution for me.”
Fazl said, “Our forefathers have not rendered sacrifices for staying behind but for moving forward.” Lambasting on the politicians, he said why were those in politics who cannot go to jail.
The PDM chairman said that the economy was destroyed in two and a half years by imposing an illegitimate government on our country. “How long will you keep blaming the previous governments, now there is no power in these words, admit your incompetence and leave power.”
"We are talking about democracy, the constitution and the supremacy of parliament and stand by the Constitution of Pakistan in order to fix this country,” he added.
