Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (JUI-F) chief, Maulana Fazlur Rehman, has halted all political activities due to health concerns, ARY News reported on Friday, citing sources.
According to details, doctors have advised Fazlur Rehman a complete bed rest and avoid walking due to ‘swelling in his left foot’, the sources said.
