Prime Minister Zafarullah Jamali on Friday expressed the governmentâs resolve to prevent the use of mosques and madrassas for inciting sectarian hatred.
He was chairing an inter-provincial meeting to review the law and order situation in the country. All provincial governors, chief ministers, chief secretaries, inspector generals of police as well as federal interior and finance ministers and heads of civil armed forces attended the meeting at the Prime Ministerâs Secretariat. âThe prime minister vowed to prevent the use of mosques and madrassas for fanning sectarian hatred and directed the provincial governments to ensure that these institutions are only used for the purpose they have been set up for,â sources said.
I thought they'd been set up for whipping The Masses™ into a frenzy so they'd go out and kill any infidels they found, then each other if they couldn't... | Mr Jamali said the government was determined to combat lawlessness and terrorism and ensure the writ of the government across the country. Official sources told Daily Times the meeting discussed a four-point agenda which included the overall law and order situation in the country; the terrorist attack in Quetta; law and order in the area where the boundaries of Balochistan, Sindh and Punjab meet; and the implementation of police reforms.
This is certainly likely to happen in a country where people like Hafiz Saeed are respected citizens. |
