Pakistan Muslim League (N) Vice President and Chief Organizer Maryam Nawaz has urged religious scholars to play their due role for establishment of peace and harmony in the society.

Addressing religious scholars and Ulema at a ceremony in Lahore on Saturday, she said people of Pakistan has a strong association with Islam and it is the topmost duty of the Ulema to negate the elements involved in the fanning of extremism in the society.

Censuring Chairman Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Imran Khan to play religious card for political gains, Maryam Nawaz said Imran Khan is responsible to tarnish the social and religious fabric of the society.

She lamented that Imran Khan inflicted irreparable loss to the vital interests of country to such an extent as our eternal enemy could not prove successful to harm the country in 75 years.

Terming Al-Qadir trust case as a biggest scandal of corruption, she said that Imran Khan caused a loss of billions of rupees to the national exchequer and there was no political vengeance behind Imran Khan's arrest.

She said that lame excuses are being presented in the court of law by PTI leaders to gain leniency whereas PML-N leaders faced their cases with courage and determination.
