MUZAFFARABAD (Dunya News) - A resolution of no-confidence has been moved against the Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) Prime Minister Chaudhry Abdul Majeed.
The resolution was moved by Muhammad Hussain and Majid Khan, members of the legislative assembly from Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP).

Majeed, who was nominated by President Asif Ali Zardari for the premiership, was elected in the June 26 election from a constituency in the Mirpur district.
Originally from the Chaksawari area of Mirpur district, Majeed joined the PPP in 1979 and became a speaker of the legislative assembly in 2008. He has also served as a minister in the 1996 PPP government. After the death of the opposition leader Sahibzada Muhammad Ishaq Zaffar in 2006, he was appointed to the position. The same year, he was appointed as the president of PPP AJK.
