Shaykh-ul-Islam Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri has condemned the terrorist strikes on the buses of Pak Navy in the strongest possible words. He said that three attacks on the Navy buses in a span of a few days show that the problem of terrorism is far from being over. It is the single most danger facing the nation warranting collective and coordinated response from all the state stakeholders.

He said that the audacity with which terrorists have struck at the law enforcement and security institutions shows that a lot needs to be done to eliminate this menace from our midst. Shaykh-ul-Islam said that terrorists are hitting the state and its symbols in an effort to break the morale of those fighting this evil menace. He urged the government to create fresh political consensus against terrorism and formulate a new anti-terror policy. It must be kept in mind that around a dozen of people were martyred in three attacks besides dozen other injured.

Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri prayed to Allah Almighty to rest the departed souls in peace and give patience to the grieving families to bear the loss of their near and dear ones. Meanwhile, Sahibzada Hassan Mohi-ud-Din Qadri, president of Supreme Council, Sahibzada Hussain Mohi-ud-Din Qadri, president of Federal Council, Dr Raheeq Abbasi and Sheikh Zahid Fayyaz have also condemned the acts of terrorism and dubbed them as ‘cowardly’. They demanded of the government to work out a holistic policy against terrorism in consonance with all relevant stakeholders.
