2018 General Elections edit

It emerged as the 12th largest political party by securing 172,120 (0.32%) votes but it failed to get any seat in 2018 general elections.[5]

Controversy edit

It is believed to have a political connection with the Milli Muslim League whose registration has been rejected several times by Election Commission of Pakistan due to having its affiliation with Jama'at-ud-Da'wah's Hafiz Saeed.[6] It fielded most of the candidates of Milli Muslim League but failed to get any seat in 2018 general elections.[7][8][9][10]
