Fazl responsible for creating divide in MMA, says Qazi
2007-10-12
Maulana Fazlur Rehman, chief of the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam, is responsible for creating differences among the Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA) component parties as he delayed the dissolution of the NWFP Assembly, said Qazi Hussain Ahmad, MMA president and Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) chief, on Thursday. He said the JI had opposed Maulana Fazlur RehmanÂ’s decision of dissolving the provincial assembly on October 2 in the MMA Supreme Council meeting, while insisting on the dissolution of the assembly by September 29. He said Fazl had asked the JI leadership to remain neutral in the All Parties Democratic Movement (APDM) meetings. He said it was his responsibility to convince the leaders of APDMÂ’s component parties on October 2 on the dissolution of the NWFP Assembly. He said the Awami National Party (ANP) and the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) had agreed on October 2 as the date for dissolving the assembly. He said he was unaware of the benefits Fazl wanted by delaying the dissolution. He said the MMA would demonstrate a better strategy to tackle issues after the presidential election. Politics of resignations has failed: Maulana Fazlur Rehman said in an interview on Geo News that the politics of resignations had failed as the move had proved fruitless. He said he was against resigning from the present assemblies but he had to go with the unanimous decision taken by the APDM. He said the APDM supported Justice (r) Wajeehuddin but on the contrary it resigned from the assemblies, which was totally confusing.
