JI plans march towards US embassy

ISLAMABAD: Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) announced to carry out a million march toward the United States embassy on the 27th of Ramadan to express solidarity with the oppressed people of Palestine.
Addressing a Gaza Solidarity March in Islamabad, JI Ameer Sirajul Haq said that the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) has also failed to play its due role for Palestinians and just is restricted to statements only.
“Our parliament also passed ineffective resolutions and now the lawmakers don’t even talk about the situation of Gaza,” he added.
Sirajul Haq said that millions of people would be marching towards the American embassy on the 27th of Ramadan.
Speaking on the political situation in Pakistan, the JI chief said that the economy of the country cannot improve till the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) are in power.
“These two families have ruined Pakistan and the country cannot be put on the path of prosperity until they are removed from power,” Sirajul Haq added. –Agencies
