He said another May 9 is being prepared, alleging that Rana Sanaullah’s mindset is shaped by Model Town and Muridke and urging him to account for his past before pointing fingers at others.
He said another May 9 was being prepared, alleging that Rana Sanaullah’s mindset was like that of Model Town and Muridke, and urged him to account for his past before pointing fingers at others.
Speaking in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly, he said, “If anyone wants to fire a bullet on September 27, let them; if anyone wants to disqualify us, let them.
We will compete under all circumstances.” He said their struggle for Imran Khan’s unjust imprisonment and the constitutional and democratic rights of the people would continue, and that the September 27 Islamabad march would take place, God willing.
“These people are repeating their own history,” he said.
“On the one hand, they accuse us of links with proscribed organizations, while on the other hand, they themselves ask proscribed organizations not to carry out operations in Punjab.
The nation now needs to understand this hypocrisy and contradiction.”
He said India attacked Pakistan in May and that Pakistan’s courageous and forceful response had become part of history.
However, he regretted that during the “Battle of Truth,” Maryam Bibi and Nawaz Sharif did not utter a single word against Modi. Those repeating their history should remember their own history, he added.
He said that when an operation against terrorism was under way in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Punjab Chief Minister Shehbaz Sharif had ordered that Pakhtun citizens be stopped from entering Punjab at the border.
He said this was also part of the same history.
“We do not engage in the debate of dividing Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Sindh and Balochistan in the name of terrorism; everyone is Pakistani,” he said.
“But history must be examined to see where political leaders and workers have faced attacks, arrests and political imprisonment.” He said political prisoners were still in Punjab’s jails and that Imran Khan was unjustly imprisoned in Adiala Jail.
He said Maryam Nawaz had absolved Modi of responsibility and rubbed salt into the nation’s wounds.
Saying that Punjab faced a threat not from the neighboring country but from neighboring provinces was tantamount to giving enemy India a clean chit and openly contradicting the Pakistan Army’s four-year position and the national narrative against Indian aggression, he added.
“If there is no threat from the enemy, then who is responsible for Modi’s aggression and conspiracies against Pakistan?” he asked.
Targeting one’s own provinces was the height of political prejudice, he said.
He said the nation remembered everything from the Dawn Leaks and Memogate to the latest statement. Indian media had been continuously propagating Maryam Nawaz’s statement for a week, he added.
He said every tactic was being used against Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf workers and political opponents in Punjab, but not a single word was spoken against Modi.
“Ignoring the enemy and declaring one’s own provinces a threat—if this is not political prejudice, then what is it?” he asked.
Shafi Jan said Rana Sanaullah saw May 9 in every political struggle and claimed that another May 9 was being prepared.
“People think according to their mindset; his mindset is like that of Model Town and Muridke,” he said. He added that allegations had previously emerged regarding Rana Sanaullah’s electoral links with proscribed organizations and their workers, the same institutions whose evidence he was citing today.
“First account for your past, then point fingers at others,” he said.
He said they would come from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa on September 27 and challenged anyone to stop them. “We have already told those saying Attock is a red line that no red line can stop the people’s struggle,” he said.
“Rana Sanaullah, listen carefully: we will come from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa on September 27. If anyone has the courage, let them try to stop us.”
