Mahjoubi Aherdane

During the Moroccan constitutional referendum of 1962, Aherdane voted in favor of the text of the first constitution of independent Morocco and led his party to join the Front for the Defense of Constitutional Institutions (FDIC) -a party created by Ahmed Réda Guédira, a close friend of King Hassan II- in the legislative elections of 1963. This election was won by a majority of the FDIC and led Aherdane to participate in the Bahnini government as Minister of National Defense from 1963 to 1964 and Minister of Agriculture from 1964 to 1965, a position he was to hold again in the Hassan II 4 government from 1965 to 1967. In 1967, Abdelkrim al-Khatib decided to leave the Popular Movement to remain in the opposition and created the Popular Democratic and Constitutional Movement (MPDC, future PJD). In 1970, Aherdane left the Guédira movement (FDIC) and guided his party to second place in the 1970 legislative elections, which were won by independents who created the Rassemblement national des indépendants (RNI) a few years later. In 1977, when the Osman II government was formed, Aherdane agreed to take part in it and became Minister of State in charge of posts and telecommunications, a position he would keep in the Bouabid I government. In 1981, he became Minister of State in charge of Cooperation in the Bouabid II government.
