Govt engineered Hafsa crisis: Opp
Opposition parties on Thursday accused the government of engineering the Jamia Hafsa crisis to divert public attention from the ongoing judicial crisis.Talking to Daily Times, leaders of the main opposition parties also said that if President General Pervez Musharraf was unable to control the madrassa crisis, he should step down rather than shift the responsibility for containing the Talibanisation campaign of the madrassa students to civil society. Maulana Abdul Ghafoor Haidery, deputy secretary general of the Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA), was of the view that the government engineered the Jamia Hafsa crisis to distract attention from the real issues, especially the ongoing judicial crisis. He said the government was unnecessarily highlighting the madrassa issue and Gen Musharraf mentioned it in each of his speeches without fail. Posted by: Fred 2007-04-06 |
