JAKARTA - Former Secretary General of the National Awakening Party Lukman Edy and a number of PKB functionaries will visit the Ministry of Law and Human Rights on Tuesday afternoon to reject the results of the PKB VI Congress.

"Basically to the Ministry of Law and Human Rights is to deliver my copy of the letter to the PKB Tahkim Council, a kind of party court," Lukman said when contacted by ANTARA from Jakarta, Tuesday, August 27.

He explained that the letter contained rejection of the results of the PKB VI Congress on August 24-25 in Bali.

After that, he said that his party would focus on holding the counter congress on September 2-3 in Jakarta.

Based on the agenda received by ANTARA, Lukman Edy and PKB functionaries will submit the rejection file to the Ministry of Law and Human Rights Office in Jakarta, on Tuesday afternoon or 13.00 WIB.

Previously, the PKB VI Congress appointed Muhaimin Iskandar or Cak Imin to serve as chairman of the political party.

The decision was made in the 4th Plenary Session of the PKB Congress after 38 regional leadership councils unanimously asked Cak Imin to serve as General Chair of PKB for the 2024-2029 period at the 2nd Plenary Session.

"I received a request from my friends to take care of PKB for the period 2024-2029," said Cak Imin at the Bali Nusa Dua Convention Center, Badung Regency, Bali, last Saturday.

In addition, the PKB VI Congress also appointed Vice President Ma'ruf Amin as Chairman of the PKB Syuro Council for the period 2024-2029.

Meanwhile, some of the PKB cadres who were accommodated by the PKB DPP Functionary designed the congress again on 2-3 September 2024 in Jakarta.
