BACHOK – PAS will discuss with the top leadership soon on the dissolution of the state legislature in the three states it leads, namely Kedah, Kelantan and Terengganu.

PAS vice-president Datuk Idris Ahmad said the talks would be held following the announcement of Umno Supreme Council which met on Friday to dissolve Parliament soon to make way for the 15th general election (GE15) this year.

“As before, we are not disbanding state legislature, but there may be changes.

“We will discuss it soon because it is the party’s decision that determines whether they will be dissolved simultaneously with Parliament or not,” he told reporters after officiating a closing ceremony of a programme in Kandis, here. yesterday.

Earlier, PAS secretary-general Datuk Seri Takiyuddin Hassan said the PAS-led state governments would not dissolve their respective state assemblies earlier than March 2023.

Commenting on the resolution of the programme that calls for all candidates in the upcoming election to consist of individuals who do not spread the Wahhabi beliefs and teachings, Idris, who is also the religious affairs minister, said the leadership will study the proposal.

“We will take such views and suggestions to the party. It is up to the leadership to decide later,” he said. – Bernama, October 2, 2022
