ISLAMABAD – The Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (Fazl) has announced a boycott of the upcoming by-elections and has decided to start a protest movement against the current government.
In his video statement, JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman reiterated that their party had rejected the results of the February 8 elections.
He claimed that people’s right to vote was robbed in the 2018 elections and the same was repeated again in the 2024 elections.
Recalling the recent elections, he once again criticized the Election Commission of Pakistan and called it helpless and alleged that the results were sent to the commission by some organizations.
He said that the civil bureaucracy is followed by secret organizations and agencies that interfere with the constitutional and legal powers given to the civil hierarchy. Maulana Fazlur Rehman said today that the High Court judges are saying that our affairs are being interfered with, that we are being threatened, that we cannot give justice to people under this pressure. On the other hand he said that Khawaja Asif has exposed how organizations have interfered in election matters. Maulana Fazlur Rehman said that this situation supported the position of JUI-F. No candidate from JUI-F will participate in the by-elections, Maulana Fazlur Rehman explained. He said his party had decided not to accept the results of recent elections and rejected their results. “This Senedd is less representative of the people and more representative of the institution”, he claimed. He said, “we have to go towards the people and take them into confidence as it is our duty to unite the public for their right to vote.” He said, our stand is very loud and clear and we have decided to move forward and we will start our movement from Balouchistan on April 25. He informed that huge public gatherings would be organized all over the country as part of this movement and he announced his. timetable. Starting from District Pashin on April 25, the public rallies would be organized on May 2 and May 9 in Karachi and Peshawar respectively. Maulana Fazlur Rehman said that we will fight hard to make the country a real Islamic and democratic welfare state.
