Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) supremo Maulana Fazlur Rehman commended on Tuesday the role of the Islamic scholars in the running government affairs.
Addressing the workers’ convention in Multan, Rehman said: “The JUI-F has always struggled for the masses’ rights. The JUI-F’s Million March had proved the party to be one of the country’s biggest political forces.”
“We did not create obstacles for the power for which we were kept out of parliament,” Rehman rued.
He made it clear that his party will stage protests if there is rigging in the upcoming elections. “We are not going to give away our rights if they are snatched,” he added.
Few days back, Rehman said on Saturday that it will be challenging to uplift the country’s economy.

Addressing an event in Peshawar, Rehman said, ‘’It would not be a matter of joy to see my opponents in jail while I am freed. I am of the view that every politician should be out of jail.’’‘’One of the ambassadors said that arresting the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief is concerning. I had said, What about sending the other leader who remained the country’s premier three times to jail? Rehman added.
He made it clear that the party was not having any personal tussle with any stakeholder. However, there are differences in ideology.
Rehman bemoaned that the traders are facing severe economic hardships, adding that the people were staging protests against the inflated power bills.
