Derogatory remarks: JI demands expulsion of Indian envoy.

ISLAMABAD -- Jamaat-i-Islami (JI) has demanded the federal government to expel the Indian envoy over derogatory remarks recently made by two leaders of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) against the Holy Prophet (PBUH), media reported on Saturday.

Addressing a public march at Mall Road in Lahore, JI Ameer Siraj-ul-Haq announced a train march against the coalition government from June 25.

The JI Ameer pointed out that this coalition government is lying like Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI). 'Shehbaz Sharif-led regime has failed to control the inflation. Both PML-N and PTI are playing blame game instead of delivering,' he added.

Siraj-ul-Haq further said that the party has decided to launch a train march against the federal government from June 25. 'People from different parts of the country will arrive by train. We will continue our struggle for the Islamic Revolution,' he added.

Terming the incumbent government's budget 'anti-people', the JI Ameer said the budget proposals were finalised under the dictation of International Monetary Fund (IMF). 'Rise in prices of petroleum products are not less than a drone strike,' he added.
