Islamabad, September 19; Youth Parliament Pakistan, on the
first day of the fifth session unanimously passed a
resolution condemning the blasphemous US movie. The
sacrilegious film, the Youth Parliamentarians said, was a
conspiracy to distress the Muslims all over the world.
They called for efforts to forge unity among the Muslims
to foil the conspiracies of the anti-Islam forces.
“Corrupt
democratic rule has always resulted in the emergence and
dominance of the military intervention in political
milieu, thus making Military the only key decision-maker
not only in charge of defence of Pakistan but also in the
other national sectors like domestic, foreign and
security”, Mr.
Muhammad Umar Riaz (YP36-PUNJAB16), Youth Minister for
Law, Parliamentary Affairs and Human Rights said, He was
of the view that it was the need of the hour to make
internal policies based on accountability to counter
corruption and drastic reforms need to be initiated in
this regard.
Ms. Shaheera Jalil Albasit (YP56-SINDH08), Youth
Minister for Foreign Affair and Defence demanded a
complete review of activities in the educational
institutions which are under the military administration.
The students in these institutions like other civilian
educational institutes must be allowed to hold and express
their views on all social issues and must not be
restricted from holding any healthy political dialogues.
Later,
Mr. Hassan Ashraf
(YP01-AJK01) moved a resolution to discuss recommendations
for the improved implementation of the blasphemy laws.
The 4th Youth Parliament Pakistan is
supported by the Danish International Development
Agency, Government of Denmark as recognition of the
importance of young people's involvement in democracy and
democratic practices. |
