He gave hope, respect, Dignity to marginalised labourers, farmers; protection to women, children and minorities. While emphasising on the sovereign power of the people, he introduced and implemented revolutionary reforms in all walks of life. He established educational and national institutions and made Pakistan a nuclear state. He rendered invaluable services for the cause of solidarity and unity of the Islamic World, supported the right of self determination of Kashmiri brethren. Last but not least he did not seek appeasement or compromise but fearlessly sacrificed his life for resurrection of democracy.”

“This Assembly resolves and recommends to Sindh Government to approach the Federal Government to adopt the following Resolution:
“This House Show its strong reservation on the recent recommendations of Council of Islamic Ideology”

Like,
1. No minimal age for marriage.
2. Recommendation against DNA Test for rape indictments.
3. No need of taking the permission of the wife for second marriage.
All these such recommendations by Council of Islamic Ideology CII’s Head are regressing and anti women.
It looks that instead of solving, the issue’s it is creating more divide and confusion in the mind of people.
This House therefore; strongly recommends that since this council is unable to perform a positive role, it should be done away with as it is causing more damage then Pakistan can afford.”
