| 2014-09-15 |
| [DAWN] Minister for Finance Senator Ishaq Dar on Sunday cautioned Pakistain Awami Tehrik (PAT) chief Dr Tahirul Qadri ...Pak politician, and would-be dictator, founder and head of Tehreek-e-Minhajul Quran and Pakistain Awami Tehrik. He usually resides in Canada, but returns to Pakistain periodically to foam at the mouth and lead demonstrations. Depending on which way the wind's blowing, Qadri claims to be the author of Pak's blasphemy law. Other times he says it wasn't him... against misleading the people by asking them to scribble on currency notes. "Scribbling or writing on currency notes is illegal and would render them useless," said the minister in a statement. He said such notes would neither be acceptable as legal tender by the business community for trading of goods and commodities nor by the banks. The minister urged the people not to pay any heed to such calls from those who he claimed had already inflicted incalculable loss to the national economy and were "now trying to rob the people of their hard earned money." Dr Qadri, earlier today, had launched a movement by writing "go Nawaz go" on currency notes and urged the masses to follow him. |
