Regarding the acquisition of signatures to run as an independent candidate, Naseer said that is a work done by a group of youngsters.

A population of more than 2555 people is in this constituency. So a lot of the youth believe that I don’t have to back down from a result of a vote among 430 people.” Moosa Naseer said.
