KOTA BARU – The PAS Syura Ulama Council will hold a meeting next week to screen candidates who will contest 126 state seats in the six states holding elections soon, said party president Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang.
“The Syura Ulama Council will meet next week to discuss the screening of candidates. In terms of the manifesto, it is still in the planning stage,” he said after the launching of the Kelantan Perikatan Nasional (PN) election machinery at Dataran Warisan Stadium Sultan Muhammad IV here yesterday.
