Pakistan: Lack of federal govt’s will to support IDPs & Poor Planning on the issue

Yesterday at Senate session PPP Senator Sehar Kamran raised issue of IDP’s and pointed out lack of government will to support IDP’s and poor planning. Operation support of govt is only restricted to advertisements of one province, overseas Pakistanis are kept in isolation, they have always been standing with the country at all times of need, they want to help their displaced brothers and sisters but there is no communication, government had not announced any bank account where remittances could be sent. Op Zarb e Azab is offensive against terrorists, it aims at flushing out foreign and local militants from North Waziristan.

Pak Army is fighting the enemies of Pakistan, it is a war for peace and stability of our beloved homeland. At this time when we need national unity and string resolve to eliminate terrorism, it is unfortunate to witness non-serious attitude of government. Either they should accept that government lack administrative skills and will to eliminate terrorism or there are vested interest behind.

There has been no proper planning to manage issues of IDP’s and extend them open hearted support. Differences between KPK provincial and federal government have surface, parliament is kept in isolation and political will to bring National Unity is lacking. When operation Rah e Nijat was launched in Swat there was a complete harmony between government and army, the whole nation was united to support IDP’s, successful operation and rehabilitation of IDP’s was a remarkable achievement of PPP government, Today there is no sign of national unity, PMLN government has self centered agendas, no planning has been done for IDP’s. Interior Minister is nowhere, NDMA has not demonstrated any responsibility. State TV and Radio is not seen broadcasting any telethon. Government is lost.

If we are not going to look after IDP’s today we will be denying our national obligations and basic human rights. PPP chairman was first to announce support to IDP’s, and first to announce support to Pak army. We stand today with our brave army fighting to protect Pakistan from those elements who martyred our great leader Shaheed Mohtarma Banazir Bhutto. Terrorist have been killing innocent civilians, attacking our security forces, blowing mosques, destroying our infrastructure and they have made heavy damages to our economy and social lives. It us time to purify our motherland from terrorists.
