KARACHI: Amir of Jamaat-e-Islami Karachi Hafiz Naeemur Rehman took swipe at Pakistan Peoples’ Party Chairman Bilawal Bhutto, questioning why Bilawal would be hesitant to contest elections from Liyari if his party truly held mandate in Karachi.

Rehman criticised Bilawal and PPP, alleging that PPP secured its position in Karachi mayorship through illegitimate practices. He further asserted that no party including PPP, seemed prepared to address crises plaguing Karachi.

Highlighting JI pre-polls victory ahead of February 8 elections, Rehman proudly claimed that JI is largest political party in Karachi, emphasising their contribution of providing free IT education to 25,000 young individuals.

He went on to state that JI aims to uplift youth, brighten their future and empower women financially. He promised to provide health cards to residents of Karachi. Rehman asserted that under JI’s leadership, industry growth and development in Karachi would be inevitable if party secures victory in February 8 polls. Naeemur Rehman raised questions about Bilawal’s absence from Karachi’s political field, contrasting it with absence of PTI founder in political battlefield.
