The Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP) condemned the People's National Party (PNC) for allegedly using state resources and institutions to inflate its membership, including through job threats and forged registrations. The MDP called on the Election Commission to take legal action against the misuse of personal information stored at state institutions.
One outlet so far Only Maldives Republic has reported this among the sources we monitor. A gap in what we monitor, not proof that others did not report it.
We are concerned that government agencies, as well as companies, are working to increase the number of PNC members by utilising state resources and [other] resources at the behest of President Mohamed Muizzu
It is unacceptable for anyone to be forced to join the PNC through job threats
Nothing to compare yet. If another monitored source reports it, its headline appears beside this one.
