LAHORE - A large number of male and female members of Punjab University Academic Staff Association (PUASA) led by Vice Chancellor Dr Mujahid Kamran took out a rally from Undergraduate Study Centre to New Campus Bridge to condemn the blasphemous movie on Tuesday.
PUASA Acting President Dr Ehsan Sharif, Secretary Javed Sami, Prof Dr Shaukat Ali, Prof Dr Mansoor Sarwar and Prof Dr Rukhsana Kausar were prominent among the participants.
The protesters were holding banners and placards inscribed with anti-America and pro-Namoos-e-Rasalat utterances. The teachers were chanting slogans against the conspiracy to disrupt the world peace through a recent attempt which has badly smashed up the emotions of over 1.5 billion Muslims throughout the world.
The teachers’ rally was peaceful as they avoided disturbing the flow of traffic and reached the campus bridge negotiating the corners of the one side of the road.
On the occasion, Dr Mujahid Kamran said the Americans were not our enemy but a high cabal of families who wanted to establish One World Government.
He said our faith could not be completed unless we protected the respect of Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) and any blasphemy meted out to our beloved Prophet (PBUH) was not acceptable to any Muslim.
He said the Muslims must focus on education in order to fight enemies as knowledge was the headspring of power and wealth. He said the Muslims were facing all their problems because of deviation from the holy Quran which urged the mankind to resolve mysteries of universe.
