LAHORE: Al Qaeda has nominated Ameers (presidents) and Naib Amirs (vice presidents) in all 34 districts of Punjab who can take over the province at any time, South Asia Free Media Association (SAFMA) General Secretary Imtiaz Alam said on Friday. During his address at a condolence conference in memory of poet and former professor of Punjabi at MAO College Professor (Late) Ali Arshad Mir, Alam also alleged that Punjab police have been providing protocol to jihadis. He said the rightist and leftist wings in Pakistan had unfortunately united and were jointly terming the United Sates an enemy of Pakistan, adding that this ideology was further being fuelled and propagated by mujahideen in the media. Alam said that these extremist forces had joined hands to overpower the third faction the progressive and liberal section of the society. He apprehended a clash of factions as forces from Muridke, Raiwand, Waziristan, DI Khan and Karachi were working to defeat each other. The SAFMA general secretary said the mujahideen media had adopted the Talibans theory and was attacking secular forces in the country. He said that the lawyers movement has also divided the civil society, adding that the democratic movement had cooled down as well. He said the absence of Arshad Mir was being felt in uncertain times like these, which require someone to raise a voice for the liberal and progressive forces in the country. staff report
