JAKARTA, March 3 — An Indonesian labour party said on Friday its members will protest against a controversial court ruling that this week ordered the country’s poll body to delay the 2024 presidential and general elections.

Indonesia’s constitution mandates a two-term limit for presidents and vice presidents and the Constitutional Court made clear in a ruling on another case on Tuesday that there could be no extension beyond that. Jokowi, as the incumbent is popularly known, has previously said he rejects the idea of extending his time in office.

Jokowi’s ruling party and the country’s chief security minister said a district court has no authority to decide on election issues, echoing concerns from law experts.
