However, now that these elections are being held, we demand that there should be no manipulation as we saw in the election of mayor. The results must not be changed. No one will accept if polling results are changed.”

Thousands of people joined an election rally staged by Jamaat-e-Islami, a major religious political party, in Karachi on Sunday.

The participants, carrying party flags, chanted “God is great” and sang party songs.

Hafiz Naeemur Rahman, chief of Jamaat-e-Islami, Karachi, demanded that elections should be free, fair and transparent.

“These elections should have been held under the supervision of judiciary, not under the executive. We demand that there should be no manipulation as we saw in the election of mayor. The results must not be changed. No one will accept if polling results are changed,” he said.

Kiran Waseem, a Karachi resident attending the rally, said she wanted the government to launch schemes for youth.

“Our youth is despondent. I would like that party to gain power which can help youth develop their potential and resuscitate the economy,” she said.
