Dubai: Iran’s official IRNA news agency said registration has begun for candidates running in the country’s parliamentary elections, which is set for February 2020.
The elections will be a gauge for the popularity of the moderate and reformist camps that President Hassan Rouhani represents. It comes after unrest over government-set petrol price earlier in November.
The elections will be held February 21 and the new parliament will begin working in May. (PTI)
