Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Emir Sirajul Haq said on Saturday that the poor segment of society and youth have a bright future.

Addressing the public gathering in Shakargarh, Haq bemoaned: "85,000 people have been killed in suicide attacks. The country is bearing the brunt of loans. Who is responsible for the country's situation?"

He berated the political opponents, saying, "Asif Ali Zardari and Fazlur Rehman also want to come into power."

Underscoring the usury system, Haq said: "Both India and Pakistan are witnessing the same kind of usury system, which is against Islamic principles."

"What have we managed to change after 76 years? As even now, the law and education brought by the British are prevailing in the country," Haq said.

Urging the people to vote for the JI, Haq said: "If you want to see the chief justice of the country holding the holy book instead of the English book, then do vote for us [the JI]."

"There is a dire need to uphold the system of justice in the country," he said.

Haq questioned, "Who is responsible for the losses Pakistan International Airlines (PIA), Pakistan Railways (PR), and Pakistan Steel Mills are facing?"
