KP Assembly to be dissolved shortly, announces CM Mahmood
PESHAWAR (Dunya News) – Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Mahmood Khan announced on Saturday that the provincial assembly would be dissolved today (Jan 14).
He revealed the plan while addressing a gathering where he said: “This is my last address as chief minister”. Mr Khan said he would send the summary for dissolution of the assembly to Governor Haji Ghulam Ali shortly.
The KP chief minister, who is leader of Imran Khan-led PTI, also lashed out at the federal government for skyrocketing inflation and halting funding to the province. He claimed the federal government had stopped providing funds for the salaries of employees of the former FATA. He said no one was ready to repose trust in the coalition government internationally due to worsening situation in the country.
Earlier this week, Punjab Chief Minister Parvez Elahi sent a summary to Governor Balighur Rehman, advising dissolution of the assembly.
