Islamabad : Ameer Jamaat -e -Islami Hafiz Naeem -ur -Rehman has said that all the major political parties in the country have turned away from public issues and come together only to protect their interests.

He announced that Jamaat -e -Islami would hold strong protests at all divisional headquarters across the country on Sunday to make the rulers feel public problems.
