ISLAMABAD: Jamaat Islami has declared plans for a protest sit-in in Islamabad on July 12, 2024, to oppose excessive billing and power outages.

As per media report, Ameer Jamaat Islami Hafiz Naeem ur Rehman has claimed that 1,000 people have died in the ongoing heatwave, but K-Electric has not reduced electricity loadshedding in Karachi.

“It has been 19 years since the privatization of the power utility, but its line losses are still at a maximum. It also supplies the most expensive electricity in the country,” Hafiz Naeem said.

“The government and the National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) have devastated the people,” JI Ameer said.

“We will force the government to withdraw its increase in power tariffs and taxes,” he vowed.

While announcing the party’s sit-in in Islamabad on July 12, Hafiz Naeem said, “We will now settle every issue with the sit-in.”

Earlier on June 16, Jamaat-e-Islami chief Hafiz Naeem ur Rehman said that the salaried class has paid 360 billion rupees in tax, while the feudal paid only four billion rupees.

Commenting on budget while addressing a press conference here, JI Ameer questioned, how much tax was imposed on the feudal class.

“On questioning, they said, they have increased salaries of the government employees,” Hafiz Naeem said. “The private sector has many times more employees than the government employees,” JI Ameer retorted.
