Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Senator Pervaiz Rashid on Saturday urged the people especially philanthropists not to donate such institutions and organisations which were spreading terrorism, extremism and hatred.
Addressing an Iftar dinner hosted by the Sundas Foundation here, he said that those which were promoting healthy activities in the society and playing eminent role in overall betterment of Pakistan deserved such donations. He said that many institutions utilised these donations for the collective good of society, but unfortunately a number of others used the same in a way which created unrest, enmity, extremism and intolerance.
He said that donors and philanthropists must not provide such resources to institutions and organisations which were persuading individuals, particularly youth, to indulge in extremism and terrorism, by inculcating the ideology of hatred and chaos. He appealed to the philanthropists to provide more resources to the institutions which were serving the ailing humanity and fighting against social evils.
The minister appreciated the Sundas Foundation for serving the people, especially children suffering from thalassemia, hemophilia and other blood diseases. He also lauded the commendable services of Munnu Bhai, chairman of the Sundas Foundation, in this sacred cause as well as his great work in the media. The minister also thanked all those segments of society supporting the noble cause through their donations and services.
Senator Pervaiz said that he was thankful to the foundation's children, who prayed for the early recovery of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif. On this occasion, Munnu Bhai lauded Punjab Chief Minister Shehbaz Sharif and the federal information minister for extending support to the foundation in controlling the blood diseases. He said thalassemia had in most cases been affecting badly the families of cousin marriage, therefore, blood tests must be got conducted before going for a cousin marriage.
If both male and female were carriers of this disease then they should not be tied in the wedlock as the fatal thalassemia would transfer into their children, he advised. He also called upon the media for playing its effective role in creating awareness among the masses about thalassemia and other blood diseases. Foundation president Yasin Khan, Lahore Press Club President Shahbaz Mian, General Secretary Shadab Riaz and senior journalists were also present.
