Shakeel Ahmed has sent his resignation to KP Chief Minister Gandapur
PESHAWAR (Dunya News) - Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Minister for Communication and Works Shakeel Ahmed has resigned from his post on Thursday following differences with Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur.
In his resignation letter sent to the KP chief minister, a copy of which was obtained by Dunya News, Shakeel Ahmed alleged that the provincial government compromised on its basic principles and commitments it made with the public during the election campaign.
He further stated that the people voted in favour of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on its anti-establishment stance but the provincial government had stepped back from its principled stance.
He also alleged that bad governance and corruption at all levels of the provincial government had destroyed the image of the party.
"I shall explain the reasons of my resignation from the cabinet on the floor of the House," he said.
