Unity Government Secretariat head Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki has urged grassroots leaders not to demand for seats for the coming state polls after the top leaders of Pakatan Harapan and BN have decided on the seat allocations.
"Everyone can ask but once we have decided at meetings, we leave it to the wisdom of the top leadership.
“Furthermore, 99.7 percent (of seat allocations) have been settled,” he said.
He was commenting on Hulu Selangor Amanah division Youth chief Abdul Mun'im Roslin’s objection to Umno’s desire to contest in the Hulu Bernam and Batang Kali state seats, which come under the Hulu Selangor parliamentary constituency.
"There is no issue actually. Maybe some people want to try their luck at the last minute by lobbying their respective party presidents,” Asyraf told reporters after the launch of the Mara Brew 23 programme at the Mara headquarters today.
Abdul Mun'im, in a statement, had asked Umno to let Amanah contest one of the two seats.
Hulu Bernam is now held by Rosni Sohar of BN-Umno, while Batang Kali used to be represented by BN but was taken over by Bersatu in the 14th general election.
