Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman said on Friday that there will be no "joy" in the forthcoming elections without the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder.
Addressing the election rally in Tank, Rehman said: "We will say nothing about him [the PTI founder]. We are not in favour of schooling the opponent, who is facing jail."
"We will have to think about what leads to the unrest in the country. Why are we being stopped from going to some areas? It is being said that they do not come closer to the masses even in the elections," Rehman said.

– Election campaign amid cold weather –
Few days back, Rehman urged the party workers to speed up the election campaign amid the cold weather and unrest in the country.
Expressing his thoughts in Islamabad, the JUI-F chief said, ‘’The politics revolving around personal interests had ended the politics based on ideology.’’
Rehman expressed optimism about winning the forthcoming elections, slated to happen on February 8.
Moreover, Awami National Party (ANP) leader Sultan Tarin and his confidants decided on Tuesday to join the JUI-F.
The newcomers expressed confidence in the leadership and policies of Rehman.
