LAHORE

Punjab Governor Salman Taseerís demand to repeal blasphemy laws to ‘protect minorities’ evoked strong reaction from religious quarters on Thursday, who accused him of implementing western conspiracy in an attempt to please his masters in Washington and the western countries.

Religious leaders held that conspiring against blasphemy laws was tantamount to committing blasphemy, calling for the Punjab governorís resignation immediately. They asked him to withdraw his blasphemous remarks, failing which they threatened to launch movement for his ouster as the governor.

JI ameer Syed Munawar Hasan said Salman Taseer and western funded NGOs had unmasked their real intentions against blasphemy laws by taking advantage of incidents of violence against minorities. Accusing the governor of actually committing blasphemy, Munawwar said love of the Noble Propeht ( PBUH) is the part and parcel of a Muslims’ faith and no faithful could tolerate blasphemy of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) and all other prophets.

Tahaffuz Namoos-e-Risalat Mahaz (TNRM), an alliance of over two dozen Sunni parties, threatened to launch “Go Taseer Go” campaign if he did not withdraw his demand immediately.

JUP Punjab president Allama Iqbal Azhari Pir Ashiq Hussain Bukhari and Pir Hasnain Farooq Shah Allama Noor Ahmad Sial and Dr Javed Awan said Salman Taseer had disqualified himself from holding the post of governor by revealing his real intentions against the honour of the Holy Prophet (PBUH), and he must resign forthwith since any person having blasphemous thoughts could not hold any public office in any Muslim country. JUP-NS president Engr Salimullah Khan said Salman Taseer had bared his averseness to Islamic tenets, and as such he could not hold public office in an Islamic country. —Asim Hussain
