LAHORE: Law Minister Rana Sanaullah has said those politicising the Badami Bagh incident cannot stop their falling reputation. Reacting to a statement by Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain on Sunday, he said people doing politics in the name of religion could never be well-wishers of the nation. He said more than 50 people involved in the Joseph Colony arson had been arrested. He said the Punjab government had completed the renovation of 60 houses and a church in Joseph Colony, whereas work on the remaining houses was underway. He said 400 labourers were working day and night in the colony. He said provincial ministers, MPAs and administrative officers were supervising the work.

Those who are politicising this sensitive issue are not sincere with Pakistan! They should be condemned by everyone to shun the politics of differences.
