Religious Scholars Can Play Key Role in Promoting Peace and Political Stability: Governor Balochistan

Independent report

Quetta, November 12: Governor Balochistan Jaffar Khan Mandokhail has emphasised the constructive role of religious scholars in promoting lasting peace, political stability, social harmony and sustainable development in the country.

He was talking to a delegation led by Maulana Abdul Haq Sani, Central Ameer of Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (S), which called on him at Governor House Quetta.

The delegation included Maulana Khuzema, provincial Ameer of JUI-S Mufti Abdul Wahid Bazai and Maulana Faiz-ul-Haq Haqqani.

During the meeting, the participants discussed the overall political and social situation, peace and stability in Balochistan, development and social reforms.

The Governor said that politics never leaves a vacuum and that political wisdom lies not merely in filling such gaps but in addressing them through better, more effective and constructive approaches that promote reform, public welfare and collective development.

He said religious scholars enjoyed considerable influence in society and could play an important role beyond religious and moral guidance by promoting tolerance, patience, respect for differing opinions and interfaith harmony.
