Jamaat-e-Islami Rejects Feudal and Dynastic Politics, Vows to Empower Youth: Hafiz Naeem ur Rehman

**QUETTA/JAFFARABAD:** Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Pakistan held a massive public gathering in Jaffarabad under its *“Bano Qabil Program”*, drawing thousands of youth, students, and citizens. The event was addressed by JI Ameer Hafiz Naeem ur Rehman, provincial chief Maulana Hidayat ur Rehman Baloch, and Balochistan Assembly member Engr. Abdul Majeed Badini.

In his keynote speech, **Hafiz Naeem ur Rehman** declared that *Jamaat-e-Islami rejects family-based, feudal, and tribal politics*, emphasizing that “Pakistan belongs to its youth, not to a handful of landlords, feudals, or generals.” He said the *Bano Qabil Program* aims to open doors of education and development for young people from all religions, backgrounds, and classes.

“Education should not be a business but a right,” he said, demanding equal learning opportunities for all — rich or poor. Hafiz Naeem urged the youth to fight for their right to education and to join hands with the *Al-Khidmat Foundation* for skill development and empowerment.

He announced that *JI and Al-Khidmat Foundation will provide free IT courses, scholarships, and job opportunities across Pakistan* to help youth become self-reliant. “It is time to free our education system from class-based divisions so that children in Balochistan can progress like those in other provinces,” he added.

Hafiz Naeem invited young people to participate in the upcoming *Bano Qabil Convention* in Lahore from November 21 to 23, asserting, “We will defeat injustice with knowledge, character, and action — Pakistan and Balochistan will both rise.”

Meanwhile, **Maulana Hidayat ur Rehman Baloch** encouraged youth to remain hopeful and committed to peaceful struggle, saying, “Despair is not an option — giving up is not our way. Jamaat-e-Islami stands with the youth at every step.”

He announced that similar programs will soon be organized in *Gwadar* and *Loralai* to provide free education and technical training. “We want to tell Islamabad’s rulers that Jamaat-e-Islami can serve the people without being in power. We believe in the power of the pen, not the gun or abusive politics,” he stated.

Concluding his address, he expressed full confidence in Balochistan’s youth, saying, “The sons and daughters of this province will make Pakistan proud worldwide. Together, we will lead Balochistan toward progress and prosperity.”

The event was also addressed by JI Jaffarabad Ameer Maulana Ayub Mansoor and MPA Engr. Abdul Majeed Badini.
