Karachi: Kidhmat-e-Khalq Foundation (KKF) and Shaukat Khanam Trust (SKT) were the preferred choices of Facebook users for donating hides of their sacrificial animals on Eid-ul-Azha.
According to a Facebook’s discussion page “Pakistan Zindabad” that received 310 answers of survey question on the first day of the Eid-ul-Azha, the users belong to different cities expressed their willingness to give the hides of sacrificial animals to mainly two welfare organizations—KKF and SKT– backed by political parties MQM and TI respectively.
A large number of respondent people plainly said that they will give hides to KKF and SKT in the response of question “Whom will you be donating hide to the party on this Eid?”
But one of the participants, Razia Qadri, replied in a different way. She said that the hide will be given to KKF because you don’t have any choice to donate it to others outside of your areas otherwise you are smart enough to know what will happen.
In the survey, Facebook users also criticized the politics of two parties bluntly with their own viewpoints. It could also be analyzed that supporters of the two political parties were observed to be at loggerhead in the favor of their supporting parties .
A respondent said, Syed Farman Ali, “All you people donate hides to Altaf and Imran for arranging another rally and congregation through collecting money in this way. And people appeal of donations and hides for Shaukat Khanam how did Imran arrange the successful convention in Lahore. Strange!”
In his reply, Muhammad Akbar said “Imran’s convention was not rented as it was not aided by foreign countries like MQM’s was. Will do they wrong to collect money from their own people and spend on their welfare?”
Out of 310 comments, a few number of survey’s participants expressed their choice of hides donations to Al-Khidmat of Jamaat-e-Islam, Edhi Foundation, Falah-e-Insaaniat of Jamaatud Dawa, Dawat-e-Islami and religious seminaries.
In contrast, these welfare, political and religious parties are donated scores of hides voluntarily at large by their supporters on every Eid-ul-Azha.
Besides, few interesting remarks were also seem such as one of Jawad Butt who said that the hide will be donated to WAPDA because if we don’t do so they will pull out our skins in the month of December.
