ISLAMABAD: Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Information Firdous Ashiq Awan has questioned why Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-F (JUI-F) Chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman contest the elections if they were rigged.
Firdous Ashiq Awan urged the JUI-F chief to support democratic and constitutional norms.
In a tweet she posted, “f the elections were rigged then why did Maulana Fazlur Rehman contest the presidential elections and his son took oath as a member of National Assembly?”

She said, “Dialogue is part of the democratic process of which Maulana Fazlur Rehman has been the firm supporter.”
Awan questioned as to why Maulana wants to keep the windows of his mind shut by declaring the talks meaningless.
She said that making hue and cry over election rigging after one year is nothing but to hoodwink the masses and weaken the democratic system.
