JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman has said that the establishment has no ideology, its ideology is only that the authority should be ours, we have and will continue to object to it.
Addressing a news conference in Karachi, he said that the PTI has not taken the issue of negotiations with the government into confidence, the PTI has not taken this matter into confidence and I have no knowledge about what they are saying and doing.
He said that the term limit has nothing to do with the transparency of the election. Even dictatorial governments complete their term. Rather, they rule for 10 or 10 years. This has nothing to do with the transparency of the election. The election was held in Constituency 45 of Balochistan. The candidate declared the winner has not won in any constituency. In Form 45, he got one, two, five and 20 votes. This is his vote. How can we trust the Chief Election Commissioner? This behavior is not changing yet.
Maulana Fazlur Rehman said that the establishment is still saying that I have to make decisions, I have to compile results. What is the status of the people that they say that I voted for this person or that person? This means that they are making a mockery of democracy.
The JUI chief said that when the establishment makes fun of democracy and the constitution, will people not make fun of them, people will not criticize them, they get angry at criticism and do this, the power will be ours, the grip will be ours, they have no ideology, their ideology is only the authority that the grip remains ours, whether it is legitimate or illegitimate, no one cares about them, we have objections to this and will remain so, we are firm on our stand, we were firm in 2018 as well, we will be firm in 2024 as well, we are not ready to have any negotiations or understanding with them.
He said that we have a complaint against politicians who compromise on democracy, the constitution and hand over the entire system to them just so that we get our credibility, this is not a legitimate post, the grip is theirs, they hand over the credibility to us so that you can sit in parliament so that you can get credibility in the nation, in our view, there is no importance of changing it.
Maulana Fazlur Rehman said that after all, what is the interest of the establishment or the rulers to mess with the madrassas? Why do they have to turn the religious community against them at all costs? Madrassas will not accept any kind of interference in their education system.
