JUI-F emir Maulana Fazulur Rehman has expressed concern over the law and order situation in the country, claiming that candidates in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan are still wary of contesting elections amid security fears.

Maulana Fazl addressed two rallies in Sindh’s Larkana and Kandhkot districts over the weekend as part of the election campaigns for joint JUI-F-Grand Democratic Alliance (GDA) candidates.
