Allah-o-Akbar Tehreek (AAT) (Urdu: الله أكبر تحریک, romanizedAllahu-Akbar Tehreek, lit.'God is Great Movement') is a political party in Pakistan founded in 2016 by Dr. Mian Ihsan Bari.[1][4][2][5]

2018 General Elections

[edit]

AAT emerged as the 12th largest political party by securing 172,120 (0.32%) votes. However, the party failed to win any seat in the 2018 general elections.[6]

Controversy

[edit]

It is believed to have a political connection with the Milli Muslim League whose registration has been rejected several times by the Election Commission of Pakistan due to being affiliated with Jama'at-ud-Da'wah's Hafiz Saeed.[7] AAT fielded most of its candidates from the Milli Muslim League but failed to get any seat in 2018 general elections.[8][9][10][11]
