MITHI: Pakistan Tehreek-iInsaf vice chairman Shah Mehmood Qureshi has said the PML-N government has failed to take up the issue of infiltration from across the border with the Afghan government as it has not yet put in place an effective mechanism for tackling external threats.

Likewise, he claimed, the government had not uttered even a word at global forums over the Indian involvement in the country`s internal matters. It was the need of the hour that refugees be sent back to Afghanistan to preempt further bomb blasts as India was using them to unleash terror attacks in Pakistan, he said.

Mr Qureshi, who is also spiritual leader of the Ghausia Jamaat, was addressing gatherings of his followers and talking to journalists in Jeso Jo Paar and other villages near Chhachbro town on Wednesday.

He said the government had miserably failed to take up the issue of Indian involvement at proper world forums. Mr Sharif had weal(enedthe case of Kashmir because `our prime minister is only worried about his businesses and his looted wealth`, he said.

He warned Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to stop fomenting terrorism in the country through his `Afghan agents`. India must stop terrorist activities in Pakistan, or else, his followers were ready to lay down their lives in fighting against Indian forces, he said.

Mr Qureshi said that Pakistan and its foreign policy had never been a priority on the agenda of present rulers but now, the country would soon get rid of the `corrupt and incompetent` rulers who had completely failed to deliver and only contributed to destroying institutions.

He said that Nawaz Sharif and his close associates had failed to defend the country on the diplomatic front as the government had not even appointed a foreign minister to take up important issues with other countries.

He said the Panamagate case was f ast approaching its logical end and expressed the hope PTI would soon get justice. Leaders ofPakistan Muslim League-Nawaz had become so frustrated over the progress on Panamagate that they had forgotten all manners of decency and decorum. The Sharifs would soon be thrown out of power, he said.

`Those who have plundered national wealth are about to meet their logical end,` he said and asked PTI workers to get ready for that day and for bringing about change.

He said that PTI and other petitioners in the Panamagate case were expecting immediate downfall of rulers who had become a `security risk` for the country.

He warned PML-N leaders not to launch attack on Supreme Court, like they did in the past, if the verdict was pronounced against them.

The Sharif brothers had over the years not only plundered national wealth but also created a sense of deprivation among smaller provinces and southern parts of Punjab by focusing only on Lahore and other towns along the Grant Trunk Road, he said.

Mr Qureshi condemned the recent suicide blasts in Sehwan and in Charsadda and paid tribute tothe police officials who risked their lives to stop suicide attackers from launching attack on the court in Charsadda.

About the performance of Sindh government, he said the worst conditions in Thar were a glaring example of the provincial government`s dismal performance.

`Children are dying of malnutrition and other diseases for the past many years but rulers are the least concerned about their lives. They have failed to provide medical facilities even in the towns like Dahli and Chhachhro,` he said.

`People in the rain-dependent arid zone have been pushed to the wall and forced to commit suicide along with their starving children after failing to get a loaf of bread for them,` he said, adding that suicide trend among the poorest of the poor had assumed alarming proportions.

PTI leaders MNA Lal Malhi and Haleem Adil Shaikh held the rulers responsible for the deepening crises in the desert area and blamed Sindh government for unabated deaths of children, lack of drinl(ing water and other perennial problems of Thar.
