Still, we must tackle it with resolve and courage. As a result, there isn’t any room for conjecture. “We were working together,” he remarked, referring to the recent elections in five states and their results. “But the opposition’s approach has hurt, but we also need to send a message to them.”

Dr. Muhammad Manzoor Alam, the Council’s General Secretary, stated that there are some scenarios for which we need to develop a better plan. On humanitarian grounds, we must engage with all concerned citizens of this country, particularly those among our compatriots who believe in the country’s constitution and democratic values. It is also planned to open the door to further engagement with religious leaders from other faiths. The work that has been done in this area in the recent past needs to be rethought, and they need to be trusted with their concerns and difficulties, and a systematic movement needs to be initiated.
