Chief Minister (CM) Balochistan Jam Kamal Khan tendered his resignation to Governor Balochistan Syed Zahoor Ahmad Agha, which was confirmed on Sunday.
Governor Syed Zahoor Ahmad Agha accepted his resignation soon after Jam Kamal sent it to him, reports Dawn.
Taking to Twitter, Kamal wrote, “And after many thoughts and reasoning and not let Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) put further cracks in us. I put my resignation with a consensus.”
Earlier, Kamal lay the blame for any loss in Balochistan’s development squarely on the PDM, the ruling Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), some Balochistan Awami Party (BAP) members, and a “few mafias” and suggested that Prime Minister Imran Khan take a good look at “his people”.
CM Khan also said that the prime minister should tell certain federal members to not “fiddle” with Balochistan’s internal matters and give some “space to the PTI’s provincial hierarchy” so that it can play its role at the provincial level in Balochistan.
Jam Kamal Khan is the fourth chief minister who has resigned to avoid a no-trust motion.
