KARACHI: Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leadership have planned a united strategy in response to the election results.
According to the details, the JI and PTI leadership had reportedly communicated ahead of the local body elections in Karachi’s remaining UCs.
In a phone chat, JI’s Hafiz Naeemur Rehman and PTI’s Aftab Siddiqui decided to collaborate to ensure free and fair elections and have created a cooperative strategy based on the results.
According to sources, employees from both parties will watch the voting process and post-election operations to ensure fair elections and results.
It is worth noting that Ameer Sirajul Haq of Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Pakistan has threatened to besiege the Sindh Chief Minister (CM) House and the offices of the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) if the JI’s mandate is not acknowledged following the Karachi local government (LG) polls.
Sirajul Haq told a press conference in Islamabad that JI workers are not cowards and that Karachi will have JI’s mayor in the coming days.
He stated that he has sent a message to Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari requesting that the issues about the irregularities in the Karachi LG polls be resolved by Friday, or else he should not complain about anything.
According to Sirajul Haq, JI wants peace and brotherhood in Karachi. “Our mayor will work to improve the metropolis.” To obtain our rights, we would besiege the CM House and ECP offices.”
