Jamaat-i-Islami chief Sirajul Haq called on government leaders ‘to launch a missile to eradicate corruption, inflation, unemployment, illiteracy and lawlessness’ in the country. He was speaking at a ceremony at the Aiwan-i-Iqbal. Haq said Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi should learn from history and stop dreaming of holding Kashmiris in India on gunpoint. He said great sacrifices rendered by the people of Kashmir demonstrate the fact that India could not crush their liberation struggle by force. Haq said rulers should desist from trying to appease India by trading agricultural produce and exchanging cultural troupes. He said talks with India would never bear fruit.
