The core committee of the Jamaat-i-Islami (JI) has refused to accept the resignation of party emir Sirajul Haq from his party office.

In a post on X, the party said that a committee was formed — comprising Liaquat Baloch, Muhammad Ibrahim, Rashid Naseem and Ameerul Azim — that met Siraj and informed him of the party’s opinion.

It further requested the JI emir to withdraw his resignation and resume his role as the party chief, which he accepted.
