“New elections are the only solution to save Pakistan,” he added. The JUI-F chief also criticised the current government, stating that it lacks legitimacy as it was formed through ‘fake’ mandate.

Speaking on the arrest of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan, Maulana Fazlur Rehman said that ‘political’ prisoners should be released.

Speaking on the 26th constitutional amendment, the JUI-F chief said that there were 56 clauses in it, adding that his party decreased the same to 27

Maulana Fazlur Rehman said that if the JUI-F had not participated, the government would have bought 11 votes.

JUI’s efforts to amend the constitution and promote legitimacy have yielded results, Rehman claimed, adding that PTI’s internal issues led to their abstention from voting.

Maulana Fazlur Rehman also took a jibe at the federal government for its foreign policy, particularly its stance on Israel and Palestine. “We are being punished for supporting Palestine and opposing Israel,” he said.

“We are being punished for trying to improve relations between Pakistan and Afghanistan,”
