The JI chief stressed that silence would only encourage such entities to further exploit the nation. He underscored the need for action against those hoarding essential commodities, rather than targeting farmers.
Additionally, he criticised the concentration of power within certain families across provinces, highlighting the need for fair governance.
He directed the party formations to develop links with the protesting farmers.
