[DAWN] The long march call given by the Jamaat Ulema-e-Islam...the political wing of the Pak Taliban... -Fazl (JUI-F) received a cold response from other parties when the proposal was taken up during a meeting of the opposition’s Rehbar Committee here on Monday. Sources told Dawn that almost all the parties expressed their concern over the unilateral announcement by JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman  ...Deobandi holy man, known as Mullah Dieselduring the war against the Soviets, his sympathies for the Taliban have never been tempered by honesty... that his party had decided to hold a "decisive" long march to Islamabad in October to oust the government. However, ars longa, vita brevis... the matter was later left to be decided by their leadership in the next multi-party conference (MPC) the date of which would be announced later. Briefing news hounds about the decisions, Rehbar Committee’s convener Akram Khan Durrani said all the parties had submitted their charters of demand and these demands would also be finalised and prioritised in the next MPC. Mr Durrani also disclosed that the MPC which was scheduled to be held on Aug 29 had been postponed due to poor health condition of Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly and Pakistain Moslem League-Nawaz (PML-N) president Shahbaz Sharif  ...Pak dynastic politician, brother of PM Nawaz Sharif, chief minister of Punjab...and some other engagements of Pakistain Peoples Party (PPP) chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari.
