MPAs unanimous in demand for action against Taliban
|
 [DAWN] The Sindh Assembly on Tuesday called upon the law-enforcement agencies to deal with Taliban hard boyz with an iron hand for challenging the writ of the state, saying that Pakistain and the Taliban could not go along.
This demand was made in a resolution tabled by Muttahida Qaumi Movement
...English: United National Movement, generally known as MQM, is the 3rd largest political party and the largest secular political party in Pakistain with particular strength in Sindh. From 1992 to 1999, the MQM was the target of the Pak Army's Operation Cleanup leaving thousands of urdu speaking civilians dead...
politician and leader of the opposition Syed Faisal Sabzwari, which was carried unanimously when put to a vote after brief endorsement speeches.
Deputy Speaker Syeda Shehla Raza, who presided over the session from its start at 11.25am until 3.55pm, adjourned it to meet on Friday at 10am, turned the private members day as the "day of resolutions" by setting a record of admitting 14 of the 16 resolutions, including the five which were on the order of the day.
One of the resolutions left out from consideration from the agenda due to the absence of its mover, Muhammad Dilawar Qureshi, pertained to the deteriorating situation of Pakistain International Airlines.
Calling for dealing with the Taliban sternly, the resolution expressed solidarity with the armed forces, Rangers and other law-enforcement agencies for the security of Pakistain and stated that in view of the threat to national security all political and religious parties which supported the Taliban should be boycotted socially.
The house condemned the suicide and kabooms on mosques, Imambargah
...since Pakistain is very religiously correct™, Shia Moslems can't call their houses of worship 'mosques,' which are reserved for Sunnis. It's not clear if imambargahs are used for explosives storage like mosques are...
s, shrines, worship places of non-Mohammedans, schools and bazaars and termed terrorism against the teachings of Islam.
Paying tribute to the deaders of armed forces, Rangers, Frontier Corps, Levies and police, the house condoled with their family members and extended their sympathy and assured them that all the people in the country shared their grief.
The house also declared that Pakistain is an independent, free Islamic state and not a fiefdom of the followers of any school of thought or faith and all those settled here -- Sikhs, Hindus, Christians and other non-Mohammedans --were equal citizens and had the same rights as its Mohammedan citizens. Highlighting the need to adopt the resolution, Mr Sabzwari said Pakistain was passing through its defining moments and "our collective wisdom demands that we unite" and stand up against hard boyz and turn Pakistain into a Pakistain of the Quaid-e-Azam.
Information Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon said the 'zaliman' had created an atmosphere of fear in Pakistain where neither mosques nor Imambargahs, nor processions of Eid-e-Miladun Nabi and Ashura, schools, police, Rangers and politicians were safe. "Taliban are roots of our all ills who want to impose their evil designs at gunpoint. Time has come for entire Pakistain to rise as one voice."
He said PPP patron-in-chief Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari was the first to challenge the Taliban who had declared that anyone who was Taliban's friend was a traitor.
Mr Memon said the Taliban were neither Mohammedan nor humans but beasts and should be treated as such. He called upon the countrymen not to fear as one day everyone had to die.Pakistain Tehrik-e-Insaf
...a political party in Pakistan. PTI was founded by former Pakistani cricket captain and philanthropist Imran Khan. The party's slogan is Justice, Humanity and Self Esteem , each of which is open to widely divergent interpretations....
politician Khurram Sherzaman supported the resolution and stressed the need to condemn the Taliban and those who had been involved in assassinations, attacks on law-enforcers and shedding blood for a long time.
Irfanullah Khan Marwat, leader of the Pakistain Mohammedan League-Nawaz parliamentary party, said no one supported terrorism. The all-party conference in Islamabad was an attempt to find a peaceful solution through negotiations but its follow-up events of terrorism, including the brutal massacre of FC personnel and desecration of their bodies, had resulted in launching an operation and everyone supported it.
He demanded that if the Death Eaters failed to declare a unilateral ceasefire, a fully-fledged operation be launched against them.
