KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 28 — Umno secretary-general Tan Sri Annuar Musa today urged all 222 members of the Dewan Rakyat to reject the special Parliament sitting on March 2 as announced by interim Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

In a tweet today, Annuar said the special Parliament sitting is unconstitutional and disrespects the Yang di-Pertuan Agong’s jurisdiction to elect the prime minister, who commands the majority in the Dewan Rakyat.
