Chief Minister Khyber Pukhtunkhwa Pervez Khattak has resigned from his post as Secretary General Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on Wednesday, Express News reported.
Jahangir Tareen will be the new PTI Secretary General.
PTI chief Imran Khan is known to be against the idea of officials juggling responsibilities in government offices while simultaneously occupying high party positions.
Spokespersons for PTI revealed that the party’s central executive committee, which held an extended meeting a few days ago, decided that dual offices would not be allowed, though a final decision in the matter had been left up to party chief Imran Khan.
Following increased criticism over being unable to attend to his dual responsibilities after the recent Peshawar church blasts, provincial chief minister Pervez Khattak finally resigned from his party post on Wednesday.
