Jamaat calls for deployment of armed forces in February electionsThe Jamaat-e-Islami has demanded that, in the next national elections, armed forces be deployed alongside the existing law-enforcing machinery. The demand was made during a meeting with the chief election commissioner on Wednesday afternoon. The Election Commission is preparing for the parliamentary elections scheduled before Ramadan in February, and the government has already begun election campaigning. The July National Charter implementation order and the question of a referendum, however, remain unresolved. On Wednesday, a two-member Jamaat delegation met with the CEC to convey their demands.
