SAMBRIAL: Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Pakistan Ameer Senator Sirajul Haq has said that JI has presented the name of prominent atomic scientist Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan as caretaker Prime Minister of Pakistan ahead of the 2018 general elections.
He stated this while addressing a big public meeting at Sambrial near Sialkot on Sunday.
“Yes, JI has okayed and forwarded the name of Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan for the slot of caretaker prime minister of Pakistan, saying that JI strongly recommends Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan for the slot of caretaker prime minister of the country,” said the JI chief.
He said that it was no doubt that Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan was the hero of the Pakistani nation, who made Pakistan a nuclear power.
“Now, it is high time to acknowledge the meritorious services of Dr Qadeer and to pay him a rich tribute by appointing him as the caretaker prime minister,” he said. He added that all the political parties including Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA), the Pakistan People’s Party and the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf would agree on the name of Dr Qadeer.
He said that the JI will play a pivotal political role at the political platform of the MMA as well. He said that the MMA’s top agenda would be to ensure the promotion of Islamic democracy and elimination of the western culture as well. He said that the JI would also continue its nationwide movement to eliminate corruption from the country, besides making it a prosperous Pakistan, an Islamic welfare state as envisaged by the founder of Pakistan Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah.
