JAKARTA - Deputy Chairman of the Ummat Party, Agung Mozin, denied that his political parties were linked to the party's perception of 'Barisan Sakit Hati'. On the other hand, he said, those who said that were actually hurt by the people who were in the line of the Ummat Party.

"Not really, that's the stigma built by those we left behind," said Agung to VOI, Friday, April 30.

According to him, those who said this did not accept the significant development of the Ummah Party. Moreover, the Ummah Party survey continues to show a positive direction.

"Those who we left are disturbed, especially seeing the survey results that continue to rise from 0.3%, up 0.9%, up 1.1%, up to 1.3% and then up again 1.5%. And yesterday in DKI, our survey results were 2.1%. Wow, that's really something new for a party, "said Agung.

"So if someone says that (the ranks of sick days, red) it is the statement of people who are panicked about the growth of the Ummah Party," he continued.

Agung also reminded again that the Ummat Party will continue to consolidate the party until the requirements are approved by the Ministry of Law and are allowed to participate in the election by the KPU.

"Our closest target is party consolidation so that all districts / cities and districts. Thank God it can be filled 100 percent," said Agung Mozin.

Previously, Party Chairperson Ummat Ridho Rahmadi rejected that his party was called a 'line of heartache' because it was filled with people who were disappointed with the results of the 2019 presidential election (Pilpres).

"It hurts. I think I can use another terminology, the opposite word but that's okay. This is so that our dialect will be awakened," Ridho said, Thursday, April 29.

According to Ridho, it would be more fitting for Ummat Party cadres to be called firm.

"I prefer to use the word that these people who are indeed struggling, even though they have to change clothes, change boats, still carry the spirit of struggle," continued Amien Rais' son-in-law.
