It's official: Sherani accepts CII chairmanship

JUI-F accepts chairmanship for Maulana Sherani after fresh notification states term is for three years.


Express November 25, 2010

The Jamiat Ulamae Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) on Thursday accepted the chairmanship of the Council of Islamic Ideology for senator Maulana Muhammad Khan Sherani.

According to Express 24/7 reporter Muhammad Kazim, the JUI-F accepted the chairmanship after a fresh notification was issued stating the term was for three years.

JUI-F had earlier rejected the chairmanship because the notification issued by the government stated that Sherani had been appointed chairman ‘till further orders.’ The party said that under Article 228 of the constitution, the chairman of the CII is appointed for a period of three years, and the notification does not state this.

Sherani had been appointed chairman after a long interval following the retirement of Dr Khalid Masood in May this year.
