ISLAMABAD, 09 July 2021, (TON): Balochistan Governor retired Justice Amanullah Khan Yasinzai resigned from his position, more than two months after Prime Minister Imran Khan asked him to step down.
His resignation was sent to President Arif Alvi, who accepted it.
According to a statement issued by the Presidency “the president also appointed PTI's Syed Zahoor Ahmed Agha as the new Balochistan governor.”
Meanwhile, the prime minister appointed Jamhoori Watan Party chief and MNA Nawabzada Shahzain Bugti as his Special Assistant on Reconciliation and Harmony in Balochistan.
A notification to this effect was issued by the Cabinet Division.
In April, Prime Minister Imran had requested Yasinzai to resign, saying he intended to appoint a new governor in view of the "transformed political challenges" facing Pakistan.
