Opposition's Plan B is now being implemented in the country which can create unrest, chaos and nuisance
GILGIT-BALTISTAN: Being a student of media studies and mass communication, I visited the Azadi March of the JUI-F once to meet participants and listen to speeches and analyse them accordingly. After listening to the tumultuous speeches filled with sedition, I was appalled at how the sentiments of the gullible and naive students of seminaries and lower middle class people of the country were being exploited, solely and wholly, for political reasons.
In a nutshell, the speeches were delivered in order to imprint the message in the minds of the audience that the PTI government is some kind of illegitimate anti-Islam party and that Islam is in danger during this regime; and it is only the JUI-F that has the capability of salvaging our religion –nothing but a religious card playing tactic.
Nowadays, plan B is being implemented which can create unrest, chaos and nuisance in the entire country. This should be stopped. So many other swords of threats are already hanging over Pakistan in the form of FATF blacklisting, economic instability, Kashmir issue, Indian aggression and internal security situation to name a few. Continuation of all this will just add fuel to the fire.
