| Only one JI MNA refuses NA perks |
| 2006-12-21 |
| Only one MNA of the Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) has so far formally asked the National Assembly Secretariat not to give him his salary and allowances, after JI Amir Qazi Hussain Ahmed announced that his party’s MNAs would not receive perks and privileges as a mark of protest against the Women’s Protection Act. Muhammad Hussain Mehanti has told the officials concerned in writing to stop his salary as MNA, sources in the NA Secretariat told Daily Times on Wednesday. The salary of Qazi Hussain has been going directly to the Al-Khidmat Foundation, a welfare organisation of the JI, since day one, the sources said. The Jamaat has 28 MNAs in the National Assembly. “The salaries of all MNAs are deposited in their prescribed accounts. We will continue to deposit salaries in their accounts until told otherwise,” the officials said. |
