Govt must be vaccinated against ‘polio of corruption': Dr Qadri

Dated: 06 May 2014

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) leader Dr Tahir-ul-Qqadri Tuesday said his party’s May 11 protest rally was against the “corrupt system” and not the government, Samaa reported.

“I am not after ‘making or breaking’ the governments but rather the end of the system that tramples the rights of masses as it was a ‘product of corruption’”, said he speaking at Samaa TV’s top talkshow Nadeem Malik Live here.

Picking apart the government, the firebrand reformist cleric declared it spineless, toothless, and incapacitated by the ‘polio’ of corruption.

“The outbreak of ‘corruption’ will have to be contained before everyone is infected. Thus the --organs of-- government should also be vaccinated against this 'crippling disease' so that it could be prevented from becoming morally handicapped further”, Dr Qadri said.

To a question, Dr Qadri said if a martial law was imposed in Pakistan he would stand by his millions of fellow countrymen to fight against it.

"A coup d'état will find itself up against a lead-reinforced wall if it ever tried to raise its tyrannical head", said he.

PAT head made it clear that he was an unfeigned advocate of true democracy.
