LAHORE: The Ahmadiya community will not cast votes in the May 11 elections because of the “attitude of the State”, Jamaat-i-Ahmadiya Pakistan Spokesperson Saleemudin told The Express Tribuneon Sunday.
Ahmadis are unable to register as Muslim voters. The election commission used the NADRA data to register Ahmadis in a separate roll. However Ahmadis say they will not avail their right to vote.
Saleemudin said there were up to 200,000 members of the community in the country. Every government, he said, has pandered to anti-Ahmadiya elements which was why Ahmadis had been unable to cast their votes.
“The separate voter list for Ahmadis published by the election commission contains our latest addresses…this exposes us to great risk,” Saleemudin said. Anyone can obtain these rolls, he said.
How can Ahmdis Take Part in these elections when whole the Population of this Country is against this innocent Community. Official Muslims of all 72 sects. and the non Muslim Minorities are included in One common List whereas as a special coloured List has been prepared for the Ahmadi Muslims only to Harass and Humiliate them. For Ahmdis are equaly evil. Which evil should they Chose?
