Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Emir Sirajul Haq’s nomination papers had been submitted on Friday from NA-6 Dir ahead of the general elections.
Expressing his thoughts, Haq asked the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) to hold transparent elections in the country. “The horse-trading and sale and purchase of votes in the election campaigns should be ended,” the JI chief said.
Haq said: “The ECP should ensure the implementation of the election code of conduct. The nation will not accept the intervention of foreign elements in the elections.”

Few days back, Haq said on that corruption and poor governance had harmed the country’s economy.
Expressing his thoughts in Lahore, the JI chief said, “Every citizen is having concerns about the ballooning inflation and unrest prevailing in the country. Those who deceived the nation will be held accountable in the upcoming elections".
Taking a jibe at the opponents, Haq said: “The rulers have no narrative in line with the upcoming elections. The rulers want more terms, but they should first point out their contributions for the sake of the masses.”
“It is mandatory to follow the country’s ideology to uphold peace, development, and prosperity,” he added.
