Unsubstantiated claim

I heard Pir Sahib of Pagaro the other day on one of the TV channels. He broke into a paroxysm of rage and said that the time has come when there is a need of bloody revolution in the country. He also said that he could hear the footsteps of the military generals near the corridors of power. According to him now martial law is inevitable in the wake of ever deteriorating conditions of our country in every walk of life. He further said that the 'maulvis' must be finished from the country. I would earnestly request Pir Sahib that he himself is one of the 'maulvis' because in Arabic language the word 'maulvi' means 'a learned man'. Is not Pir Sahib of Pagaro a learned man? I wonder why he is against the persons of his own ilk. MUBUSHAR ALI SULEHRIA, Wah Cantt, March 5.
