RAWALPINDI: Chairman Sunni Ittehad Council, Sabibzada Fazal Karim, has said the governments of Muslim countries under-reacted to the acts of blasphemy perpetrated across the world, Geo News reported.

Addressing the participants of a train-march after arriving here, he said United Nations should legislate in this regard.

“Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) should meet in Makkah Mukarama or Medina Munawwara to make laws against such profanities”, said he.

The SIC-organized Tahaffuz-e-Namoos Rasalat (PBUH) train-march, which started from Karachi, culminated in Rawalpindi after a tedious journey of 36 hours.

Lahore

Earlier, addressing a large number of supporters at the Lahore Railway Station here Sabibzada Fazal Karim termed the opponents of women's education as enemies of Islam.

If the people of Pakistan demand a military operation against the terrorists the army should go for it, he said adding, but it should refrain from entertaining American interests.

According to Karim, the train march helped the people understand they should stand up against the scourge of terrorism.

“They have not attacked Malala Yousufzai, a 14-year old education rights activist, who was shot in the head by the Taliban last week, instead they have attacked the whole system,” said he.

Multan

In Multan, Sahibzada Fazal Kareem said that conspiracies were being hatched against Islam at international level and the whole world was watching as a silent spectator.

Speaking to cohorts at Multan railway station, he said that they had strongly condemned the attack on Malala Yousufzai and maintained that drone attacks were against national sovereignty and were killing innocent people.

Sahibzada Fazal Kareem said the government should highlight issues in the upcoming meeting of OIC, to be held in Islamabad in future.

He also expressed concern over law and order in Balochistan, corruption, nepotism and other social issues in the country. He demanded the government take up the profane film issue at international forums so that no one could dare repeat the act in future.

He said Sunni Ittehad Council would actively participate in the upcoming elections.
