Government of Punjab under Shehbaz Sharif is currently supporting a movement of inciting intense hatred against Ahmadis putting Ahmadi lives in danger...and then we wonder why there is so much extremism in the country...
Quote:
Tuhafzai Khatmai Nubawat (TKN) claims to be a worldwide religious organization to protect the finality of the Prophet hood of Muhammad (SAW). However, this organization has done little to protect the name of Islam’s beloved Prophet. Instead, TKN engages in activities that are diametrically opposed to his teachings of peace and tolerance. The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community(AMC), a peaceful global religious community, has been the chief target of TKN’s unwarranted, inhumane and violent terrorist activities.
...
TKN’s recent activities in Pakistan are shocking. Recent assemblage in Multan and Faisalabad, jointly with Pakistan Muslim League (Nawaz Group) parliamentarians, have provoked and incited hatred and rage against Ahmadis. With these current trends, the Punjab Government is shaping up to create a law and order situation similar to the anti-Ahmadiyya disturbances of 1953 when TKN and its predecessors fanned hatred against Ahmadis resulting in wide scale riots in the country. Many Ahmadis lost their lives.
A leading Pakistan Urdu language newspaper published in its issue of February18, 2009 that there was an impending danger of an extremist attack on hundreds of Ahmadi religious centers all over Punjab, as well as business enterprises. The violence against Ahmadis has been escalating. Even governmental intelligence agencies have been warning of a spike in anti-Ahmadiyya violence in Punjab.
Under these circumstances, the decision of the Punjab Government to sponsor a TKN public meeting to be held on April 11th , 2009 at the biggest mosque in Lahore is appalling. Provocative and hateful public billboards publicizing this gathering of hate mongers are being displayed all over Lahore. Its announcement is inexorably detestable and exceedingly inflammable (see attached). The sole purpose of this meeting is to incite hatred against Ahmadis. The Punjab Government, instead of preventing these extremists, is actively encouraging them.
Unless TKN and the PML (N) are stopped now, they will succeed in stirring up further unrest in Pakistan and at a time when a stable Pakistan is the need of the hour, these elements will destabilize it further.
