In explosive NA speech, JUI-F chief Maulana Fazl backs PTI's political rights
[GEO.TV] In his first speech on the National Assembly’s floor, Jamaat Ulema-e-Islam
...the political wing of the Pak Taliban...
-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman
...Deobandi holy man, known as Mullah Diesel during the war against the Soviets, his sympathies for the Taliban have never been tempered by honesty. Fazl seldom misses a meal and is now so large he has his own gravitational pull...
blasted the government, outcomes of the 2024 nationwide elections, parliamentarians, bureaucracy, and the establishment on Monday.

"Neither bureaucracy nor establishment has a role in the creation of the country," Maulana Fazl said while delivering a speech on the assembly’s floor today, adding that Pakistain was created through a democratic struggle and sacrifices but it stood nowhere in terms of political and economic stability.

He criticised the ruling parties, saying: "Is this a parliament of representatives of the nation or a setup arranged by the establishment?"

"How our conscience is satisfied [after the general elections], as the losers are upset, and even the winners are not satisfied [with the poll results]."
Fazlu rehman speach NA

During his speech, the politician-cum-holy man backed Pakistain Tehrik-e-Insaf
...a political party in Pakistan. PTI was founded by former Pakistani cricket captain and philanthropist Imran Khan. The party's slogan is Justice, Humanity and Self Esteem, each of which is open to widely divergent interpretations....
(PTI) big shot Asad Qaiser’s demand for granting the right to the latter’s party to organise public gatherings, terming it the Imran-founded party’s "constitutional right".

The PTI politicians in the National Assembly thumped their desks in support of Maulana Fazl’s remarks.

He went on to say that democracy in the country was weakened after politicians "compromised" on their principles on every occasion and now, the parliament has lost its supremacy as they cannot even pass a law independently.

Fazl also said that back-to-back "full and partial" martial laws have also shaken the democratic foundations of the country by ousting elected governments.

He pointed out that the ruling Pakistain Moslem League-Nawaz (PML-N) was a witness to how a law related to an agreement between the federal government and seminaries had not been passed despite being tabled in the assembly with consensus.

The JUI-F supremo said that they raised objections on the 2018 general polls just like they opposed the 2024 nationwide elections, terming it similarly "fraudulent" as the politicians "sold out the democracy" due to the country coming to a "standstill".

The politico, who headed a multi-party alliance — Pakistain Democratic Movement (PDM) — which successfully ousted the former prime minister Imran Khan
...aka The Great Khan, who who convinced himself that playing cricket qualified him to lead a nuclear-armed nation with severe personality disorders...
’s government in 2022, criticised that his party leaders were stopped from electioneering ahead of February 8 elections due to "threat letters", pointing towards deteriorated law and order situation in their stronghold of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (KP) and Balochistan
...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it...
