Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) has scheduled a protest at 4:00 PM in the Nursery area of Shahrah-e-Faisal, Karachi, in response to alleged rigging in recent by-elections. Commuters should consider alternative routes to avoid potential traffic delays.
The protest reacts to Monem Zafar Khan, Amir of Jamaat-e-Islami Karachi, claiming a “fraudulent public mandate” and “rigged results” in the by-municipal elections. During a press conference at Idara Noor Haq, Monem Khan criticized the Sindh government, the Election Commission, and the Pakistan Peoples Party for their roles in the electoral discrepancies.
Senior JI leaders, including Deputy Amir and City Council Parliamentary Leader Saifuddin Advocate, Karachi General Secretary Taufiquddin Siddiqui, MPA Muhammad Farooq, Deputy Amir Karachi Raja Arif Sultan, Deputy Parliamentary Leader Qazi Sadruddin, Korangi District Amir Mirza Farhan Baig, and Information Secretary Zahid Askari, joined him at the conference.
