Jamaat-e-Islami Announces Nationwide Protests Against Inflation in Pakistan<\/h1>\n

LAHORE, November 12, 2026:<\/strong> Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) has announced a series of nationwide public gatherings and protests against rising inflation, increasing petroleum prices, farmers’ economic difficulties and delays in local government elections.<\/p>\n

The announcement was made by JI Emir Hafiz Naeemur Rehman during a press conference at the party’s headquarters in Mansoorah, Lahore.<\/p>\n

The party said its campaign would focus on issues affecting ordinary citizens, particularly the rising cost of living and the financial difficulties faced by farmers.<\/p>\n

Public Gatherings Planned in Major Cities<\/h3>\n

According to the announcement, Jamaat-e-Islami will organise a public gathering in Quetta on November 22, followed by a major rally at Minar-e-Pakistan in Lahore on November 29.<\/p>\n

Similar public gatherings are also planned in Peshawar and Karachi.<\/p>\n

The party leadership said the campaign would be organised peacefully and would seek public support for its demands.<\/p>\n

Rising Inflation and Fuel Prices<\/h3>\n

Hafiz Naeemur Rehman criticised the rising prices of petroleum products, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), electricity and gas.<\/p>\n

He demanded that the government abolish the petroleum levy and ensure that reductions in international oil prices are passed on to consumers.<\/p>\n

He also called for relief measures for public transport operators, agricultural machinery and vehicle owners.<\/p>\n

Farmers’ Economic Difficulties Highlighted<\/h3>\n

The JI chief also raised concerns about the financial challenges facing farmers.<\/p>\n

He pointed to the rising cost of fertilisers, agricultural inputs and electricity, arguing that small farmers were struggling to maintain their livelihoods.<\/p>\n

The party demanded policies that would ensure fair prices for agricultural produce and provide meaningful support to the farming community.<\/p>\n

Local Government Elections Also a Key Issue<\/h3>\n

Apart from economic concerns, Jamaat-e-Islami criticised delays in holding local government elections in Punjab.<\/p>\n

The party called for changes to the existing local government framework to ensure timely elections and stronger democratic representation at the grassroots level.<\/p>\n

Party Vows to Continue Public Campaign<\/h3>\n

Hafiz Naeemur Rehman said the party would continue its campaign until its demands were addressed.<\/p>\n

The announced gatherings are expected to bring together party supporters and citizens concerned about inflation, economic conditions and public services.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
