Decision on Sindh governor to be taken in a few days: Dar

Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar has said that a decision about the Sindh governor will be taken in a few days.

Dar also denied reports of Bashir Memon being made the governor of Sindh.

It should be noted that the news had come out in the past few days that the PPP and Pakistan Muslim League-N have reached a consensus on the issue of changing the Sindh governor.

Sources said that there is a possibility of a change in the next few days. Besides, there is also a possibility that the Pakistan Muslim League-N leader Bashir Memon will be made the governor.

It should be noted that currently Kamran Tessori is performing the duties of Sindh governor.

Earlier,  in a significant political development, the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) has decided to remove Sindh governor Kamran Tessori, GTV News reported citing sources.

Sources said that the discussions between the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) and PML-N have been ongoing regarding the removal of Sindh governor Kamran Tessori.

Sources close to the development revealed that the PPP has agreed to the name of Bashir Memon, the former DG Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), currently serving the president of PML-N Sindh.

Bashir Memon, proposed by PML-N, emerged as the top contender for the position, sources say.

The development comes after PM Shehbaz, who is on day-long visit to Karachi, met Sindh CM and held discussion on different projects the federal government has initiated in the province, according to a statement issued by the CM House on Friday.

During his day-long visit to Karachi, Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif and Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah on Friday agreed to speed up the timely completion of the federal government-funded development projects in the province.
