GUJRANWALA: Jamaat-i-Islami (JI) emir Sirajul Haq says his party will not give the vote of confidence to Prime Minister Imran Khan.

Talking to the media here on Friday, he said in the tenure of the PML-N government, Imran had demanded transparent election during his 126-day sit-in in Islamabad but he could not bring about any constitutional amendment about it on the matter.

In such a situation, Mr Haq said the people would have no trust in the next general election.
