Members of Jamiat Ulema-e Islam, Fazlur (JUIF) openly appealed to the Imran Khan Niazi led government to declare Jihad against India at the Pakistan Assembly yesterday Monday (03 February), reports Times Of India.

Maulana Abdul Akbar Chitrali, a member of the national assembly even suggested a date, 10 February for starting the Jihad against India.

Chitrali’s party leader is none other than a Deobandi trained, Maulana Fazal ur Rehman who is leading a crusade against Imran Khan government by organising protests across Pakistan.

Pakistan is already facing lot of pressure from the international community for providing sanctuary to Islamic terrorists groups.

They have also been under lot of pressure from Financial Action Task Force (FATF) who wants Pakistani government to act against terror groups based on its soil, which led to authorities sealing the offices of 12 militant organisations which have been operating in Muzaffarabad and the surrounding areas of Pakistan-occupied-Kashmir (PoK) for last 32 years

In July, a video released by al-Qaida’s chief, Ayman al-Zawahiri called for jihad against India. In that same video, Zawahiri expressed his disappointment that Pakistan did not allow his battle-hardened ‘Arab Mujahideens’ who fought the Soviet Union and expelled them in Afghanistan in 1989 to take part in jihad in Kashmir.
