Jamaat-e-Islami leader Hafiz Naeem-ur-Rehman has said that the train march will begin on September 20 and we will reach Islamabad on September 23 and 24.
Addressing a news conference in the federal capital Islamabad, he said that the government is not ready to give any relief to the people, the price of oil which has decreased in the world market has not been reduced in Pakistan, the government has done a criminal act that when the oil has decreased in the world market, they have started earning more and this has had an impact on the industry and the people of Pakistan.
The Amir of Jamaat-e-Islami has said that immediately after the American attack on Iran in February, he should have talked to the refineries, by talking to the refineries in India, Bangladesh, and China, relief was brought to the people.
He has said that the package that the government is giving is insufficient, the majority is not getting subsidy, the government has robbed people’s pockets even in difficult situations.
Hafiz Naeemur Rahman says that the issues of the people of Pakistan are not the issues of these big parties, there is an alliance of the establishment and bureaucracy of the big political parties against the people of Pakistan, while we are also in contact with the PTI people, they supported us, we support their protest and Tehreek-e-Insaf and farmers have supported Jamaat-e-Islami and we have supported them.
He said that when the IMF says to tax landlords, it does not tax them, but taxes poor farmers.
Hafiz Naeemur Rehman said that small vehicles are mostly used by middle class people, diesel drives the economic wheel, no relief has been given in this, more than 700 billion rupees tax has been taken from the salaried class.
Amir Jamaat-e-Islami said that if the levy was reduced, everyone would get relief, our government has collected more levy than the target, our only demand is to end the levy.
He said that Jamaat-e-Islami has presented 6 points including reducing interest, preparations are being made to continue interest by asking to end interest in the constitution, interest should be brought up to 9% in the first stage, if they reduce interest by 3%, there will be no need to levy while reducing interest by 1% will save 594 billion rupees.
Hafiz Naeemur Rehman says that there is a clear message for MD CAT students that we want them to have their test, there will be no obstacles, we will not block the roads, nothing will happen here on September 20.
He said that Makkah and Madinah are part of our faith, the attack on Makkah is condemnable.
The Amir of Jamaat-e-Islami has also said that even those who mocked our protest have now become serious about the government’s cruelty, Jamaat-e-Islami itself is bearing the expenses of the long march of Jamaat-e-Islami.
