| Jamat-e-Islami (JI) has categorically decided to refrain from participating in the All Parties Conference being convened by Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid-e-Azam on national consensus over prevailing political situation and terrorism in Pakistan if General Pervez Musharraf presided over the conference, Daily Times learnt. The JI also showed its reservation to name anyone for the interim government being set up under the supervision of President Musharraf. The JI leadership was of the view that ice has been melting between the Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal president Qazi Hussain Ahmad and general secretary Fazlur Rehman. The sources said Jamat-e-Islami, the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (Fazl) would part away from participating in the interim set-up and in the APC if headed by President Musharraf. Talking to Daily Times, Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA) central leader and JI Naib Ameer Liaqat Baloch said that the government had only invited verbally and no formal invitation had been received so far from the government corner on national consensus over prevailing political situation and recent serial of terroristsÂ’ activities in the country. |
