| 'MMA no more an electoral alliance' |
| 2008-07-01 |
| The Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA) would no more be an electoral alliance in the future, Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Deputy Secretary General Mian Maqsood Ahmad said on Monday. He was addressing a public meeting at Wahm Thal, Narowal. Every religious party would be free to make decisions on its own, he said. “However, efforts for the religious harmony and unity will continue unabated.”JI District Amer Hafiz Muhammad Tahir Aslam and Narowal Sub-Division Amer Wazir Hussain were also present. Maqsood said the JI was a revolutionary movement. “Our aim is not to get hold of the seat of government, but to work for our people and the pleasure of Allah. The people who denounced the MMA for approving the 17th Amendment should now come forward and repeal it.” He said the people who were allergic to [President] Pervez Musharraf in the past were busy finding him a safe way out. “The rulers made tall claims of judges' restoration, but after three months in power they have not been able to honour their promise.” |
