Fazl vows to enforce true Islamic system in country

BANNU: Asking the people to remain united, the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman on Saturday said that efforts for the implementation of a true Islamic system would continue.

Addressing a public gathering at the Bannu Sports Complex here, Fazl said the country was passing through a very difficult stage of its history, and urged the people to elect honest men in the upcoming elections. He said that the country's identity was at stake, adding that the rulers were bent upon promoting the Western culture while using the slogan of enlightened moderation. He said that the people would reject those who had been promoting the US agenda in the country and his party candidates would sweep the elections. Citing the achievements of his government in the NWFP, Fazl deplored that efforts of his government to promulgate the Islamic way of governance through Hasba Bill and Shariah Bill was foiled by both the opposition and in the province and the federal government.

It is pertinent to mention here that Maulana Fazlur Rehman is contesting election for NA-26, Bannu, which is considered to be a stronghold of JUI-F. NWFP former Chief Minister Akram Khan Durrani, former MPA Qari Gul Azeem, Syed Hamid Shah, Mufti Abdul Shakoor and others also addressed the rally.
