Jamaat-e-Islami undecided on signing July Charter
Jamaat-e-Islami’s Nayeb-e-Ameer Syed Abdullah Mohammad Taher confirmed that the party has been invited to the July National Charter signing ceremony on Friday and plans to attend. He stated that the party’s decision to sign the charter will be made on the day of the event.
Taher reiterated Jamaat’s stance that the national referendum should be held before the general election. The party proposed holding the referendum in November, followed by elections in February, arguing that a simultaneous referendum and election would lower voter turnout. Jamaat also urged the Consensus Commission to focus the referendum on a single package of reforms, including the formation of an upper house and a proportional representation voting system.
