India
conspirator-in-chief of Swat battle: Shujaat
LAHORE - The entire nation
should stand behind the armed forces fighting for the solidarity of
Pakistan, saving public lives and nuclear arsenals and there should
be no politics in matters of national interest.
Addressing a Press conference here at Muslim League House on
Saturday, president PML-Q Ch Shujaat Hussain said some politicians
have adopted double standards which was against national interests.
Former Punjab Chief Minister Ch Pervaiz Elahi was also present.
“The armed forces are fighting a war for the survival of the
country, and they must be supported. India is the
conspirator-in-chief. Army is fighting an insurgency orchestrated by
India. The situation demands national unity and it must be reflected
in every one’s words and actions”, Ch Shujaat Hussain said.
He said that conditions linked to aid like accepting the Indian
nuclear hegemony and compromising on national interest should be
rejected. He told the newsmen that the PML-Q ticket holders had
contributed Rs 5 million for Swat affectees. It is not an occasion
to politicise the issues but promote national cohesion and an all
parties’ conference on Balochistan issue would help the cause.
Ch Pervaiz Elahi announced forming district level committees for
raising fund for the internally displaced persons (IDPs). The
arrangements made by the government were not enough, and the party
is raising funds to ameliorate the lot, he said.
All people must go the homes of those who lost their lives in the
operation for showing solidarity with them. The injured be presented
bouquets. The IPDs are Pakistanis and they can go anywhere in the
country. No one should try to stop them.
