Saairun parliamentary bloc affirmed its commitment to leader of the Sadrist Movement Muqtada al-Sadr's statement concerning the completion of the cabinet formation and the parliamentary committees.

Sadr on Monday called on "all" political blocs to authorize Prime Minister Adil Abd Al-Mahdi to complete the government within 10 days.

Sadr had urged supporters to stage mass protests against former governments and suggested it could happen against the current government of Abd al-Mahdi.

Spokesman of Saairun bloc Hamdallah al-Rekabi expressed his hope that the rest of the political blocs deal positively with Sadr's "pure call which seeks the interest of Iraq in the first and last place."
