(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Grand Ayatollah Ali Al Sistani did not meet with Iraqi Parliament Speaker Ousama Al Nujaifi due to the absence of prior arrangement.
Al Nujaifi met with another religious authority Sheikh Isaac Al Fayad and affirmed that he will visit Grand Ayatollah Al Sistani in the future.
Iraqi Parliament Speaker acknowledged in another context that there were major human rights violations in Iraq on all levels, yet, he ruled any coup or revolution in return. Al Nujiafi called on Iraqis to have faith in the government and be fully cooperative.
Al Nujaifi reassured provincial councils in a press conference that occupational employment ranks introduced to the revised budget will be allotted for provinces according to their demographic rate.
Iraqi observers meanwhile believe the prerogatives granted to the people are an attempt by the government to inhibit potential crisis.
