Official calls on citizens to actively take part in elections

Undersecretary for Islamic Affairs at the Justice, Islamic Affairs and Endowments Ministry, Dr. Fareed Al Meftah, has stated that Bahrain is gearing up for the parliamentary and municipal elections later this week, which will confirm its civilizational and democratic approach spearheaded by His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa.

Ever since HM the King launched the Royal Reform Project, the pace of development and modernization in the kingdom has been accelerated in all fields, he said, stressing that the great number of candidates and the fierce competition among them is a strong proof of the Bahraini people’s keenness to support the sound royal reform project.

The Undersecretary called on all the citizens to answer the call of duty and assume their religious and national responsibility through active participation and voting in the elections. He also called on the candidates to place the national interests above anything else and to work vigorously and sincerely for a bright future for the kingdom and its generations.
