The Jamaat-e-Islami has rejected the party chief Sirajul Haq\u2019s resignation, saying that the religio-political party has \u201ccomplete trust\u201d in him. \u201cThe Central Majlis Shura unanimously rejected the Sirajul Haq\u2019s resignation,\u201d party spokesperson Qaiser Sharif said in a statement on Saturday. Earlier this week, Siraj had tendered his resignation to the party, but it was not accepted immediately. The decision had come after the party\u2019s lacklustre performance in the elections. But many party leaders believe that polls were rigged, prompting Hafiz Naeemur Rehman in Karachi to abandon his Karachi seat. He claimed that an independent candidate backed by the PTI had won the seat. The JI failed to win a single seat in the National Assembly in the 2024 election, where PTI-backed independent candidates emerged as the biggest group. The statement said that Siraj had arrived at his place and would address the party soon. As per the party\u2019s constitution, it added that the JI chief would continue his duties. \u201cThe failure in the elections was not due to JI chief. It was due to rigging,\u201d the spokesperson said. The party said that it rejected the poll results and demanded the chief election commissioner to step down from his position.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
