KP CM terms rumours of his replacement 'baseless'

KP Chief Minister Mahmood Khan on Tuesday dispelled rumours about his replacement saying all such news were baseless and contain no truth. Talking to media while casting his vote in bye-election of Senate seat here in the provincial assembly, the Chief Minister said that a particular lobby was behind spreading such kind of malicious propaganda to achieve their nefarious objectives.

He said he would sue the propagandists in the court of law and added that he was enjoying full confidence of the Prime Minister Imran Khan. He vowed to continue working under the leadership of Prime Minister Imran Khan for the development and prosperity of the province and its people.

To a question he emphatically snubbed the rumours about any threat to the present government and maintained that Prime Minster Imran Khan will complete his constitutional term. The Chief Minister said that due to numerical strength in the provincial assembly, the PTI nominee Zeeshan Khanzada would comfortably win the seat vacated by his father Khanzada Khan of PPP, who had defected to the ruling party.

The Baluchistan Awami Party (BAP) is an ally of the PTI government in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province and its members would cast their votes in favor of the PTI candidate. He further claimed that some of the opposition members would even poll their votes in favour of our candidate.

Tehrik e Insaf is on one page and there should be no misconception in the minds of the people of any differences in the ranks and file of PTI leadership, the CM concluded.
