CHARSADDA:
JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman on Wednesday called for immediate elections in the country, saying fresh polls were essential for “national unity and public confidence”.
Speaking to the media in Charsadda, Fazl said that a functional working relationship between the federation and Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa was necessary as cooperation between the Center and the provinces helped solve public problems. “No province can solve people’s problems without the support of the federation,” he added.
He said a meeting between KP Chief Minister Sohail Afridi and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif should have taken place three months ago.
Commenting on global affairs, the JUI-F chief claimed that the US was trying to create instability across the world to maintain its dominance, adding that Washington wanted Iran and Afghanistan to remain unstable. Fazl said “manipulation” of election results was no longer a covert affair.
