ISLAMABAD (special crosspondent) – Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi visited the Jamaat-e-Islami headquarters at Mansoora on Monday, where he held a formal meeting with party Ameer Hafiz Naeem ur Rehman to deliberate on the country’s prevailing political and security landscape, regional developments, and critical issues impacting the general public.

The meeting was also attended by key party figures, including Acting Secretary General Nazir Ahmed Janjua and Information Secretary Shakeel Ahmed Turabi. During the session, the leadership engaged in a detailed exchange of views on national affairs, emphasizing the collective necessity of addressing public grievances through structured dialogue and improved governance. This collaborative approach remains vital as the government commitment to empowering Pakistan’s SME sector continues to be a central focus of administrative policy.

Regional Security and Stability

Addressing the broader regional context, Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi highlighted the evolving geopolitical situation. He noted that tensions in the region had demonstrated signs of easing, a development he attributed to the continuous, strategic efforts of the Field Marshal. Naqvi underscored the significance of maintaining these efforts to foster long-term stability and reduce the prevailing sense of regional uncertainty.

Condolences for the Late Secretary General

The dialogue also featured a solemn tribute, as the Interior Minister expressed his deep-felt condolences over the passing of Jamaat-e-Islami Secretary General Ameer-ul-Azeem. Naqvi conveyed his formal sympathies to Hafiz Naeem ur Rehman, the party leadership, and its workers, characterizing the loss of the veteran leader as a significant void in the political sphere. The Minister offered Fateha for the departed soul and prayed for the family’s fortitude. Much like the national focus on stability, this interaction mirrored the ongoing need for political cohesion, similar to how the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister denies existence of Imran Khan force to prevent further political polarization. Furthermore, the meeting echoed sentiments regarding the need for governance reforms, a theme often mirrored in discussions surrounding the ECC approval of the Rs4.2bn package for closing PASSCO operations by 2026.
