Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Karachi Chief, Engineer Hafiz Naeem-ur-Rehman has urged the citizens to cast vote for local-bodies by-elections on Sunday (today) as they did on January 15.
He said that the Karachi mayorship depends on the results of today's LG polls in the remaining union councils.
Speaking at a press conference held at the JI Karachi headquarters, Rehman said that he reiterated his demand for static deployment of the army and the Sindh Rangers personnel at polling stations to ensure smooth flow of balloting and to avoid any untoward incident.
He also requested the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) to install close-circuit cameras at the stations to protect the elections credibility.

He quoted some reports saying that the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) has deployed its presided officers in district west to rig the polls by casting fake votes in the favour of their party.
He elaborated that the teams by JI will be present at the polling stations to offer strong resistance if the PPP government in Sindh opts for undemocratic means to manipulate the electoral process or its results.
"The PPP government in Sindh will be held responsible for the situation which may emerge in the aftermath of rigging attempt," the JI leader warned.
He also demanded the deployment of the army and Rangers personnel to ensure fail polling.
