The Maldivian Democratic Party has intensified campaign activity in Addu Atoll ahead of its presidential primary.
Fayaz is conducting door-to-door outreach and workshops across the atoll to build support. The activities form part of the party's internal process to select its candidate for the next presidential election.
Addu remains an important political base, and both major parties have historically invested significant effort there. The current round of meetings allows potential candidates and party organisers to gauge local sentiment.
Details of the exact primary date and full list of contenders have not been finalised publicly. Workshops typically cover party policy, voter engagement methods and local issues.
Opposition parties routinely use the period between elections for organisational work and candidate selection. The MDP has described the Addu activities as part of a broader national campaign.
Further events are expected in other atolls as the primary process continues.
