Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Emir Sirajul Haq on Wednesday labelled the youth as the “saviour” of the country.
Expressing his thoughts in Lahore, Haq said: “The masses should held the looters accountable through the power of vote.”
He asked the masses to “bury the politics of status quo” in the upcoming general elections.
Taking a dig at political opponents, Siraj ul Haq remarked, 'From acquiring loans to nation-building, tales of corruption abound in every aspect.”

Few days back, Haq assailed the political opponents on Wednesday, asserting the rulers are carrying on the "legacy" of the East India Company.
Addressing the convention in Peshawar, Haq took a swipe at former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President Shehbaz and Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari. ‘’The PPP had ruled the country for four terms.”

‘’The PML-N had come to power on a regular basis,” he added.
Speaking about self-accountability, Haq said, “I am ready for self-accountability in 2023. Nawaz Sharif, Shehbaz, and Asif Ali Zardari should also be ready for self-accountability.”
“Those who had put the burden of loans on the masses are now once again trying to impose themselves on the masses,” Haq said.
