00:00Home Minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail has rejected Uri May's appeal to be registered

00:07as a political party, according to his chairman, P. Ramasamy.

00:12On February 27th, the Kuala Lumpur High Court granted Uri May leave to initiate judicial

00:16review proceedings against the government's decision after the Registrar of Societies

00:21rejected its application on July 4th last year.

00:24In a statement, Ramasamy said they appealed to the minister in accordance with due process,

00:29but it was rejected before the court hearing could proceed.

00:33He said in a letter dated March 7th, an official from the ROS conveyed the minister's decision

00:39without providing any reasons for the rejection.

00:42Ramasamy said the rejection of Uri May's registration must align with the constitutional

00:48provisions that guarantee the right to form political parties and associations.

00:53He said while the rejection was not surprising, it shows that Uri May's growing political

00:58influence has unsettled the current government.

01:02Uri May's lawyer Shamshir Singh Tind told FMT that its legal team would be filing a

01:07notice to the court today to amend the party's judicial review application and statement

01:12in light of the development.
