The Jamhori Watan Party (Punjab) on Thursday reposed full confidence in the leadership of Brahamdag Bugti, Mir Aala Bugti and Agha Shahid Bugti, according to a JWP press release issued here.
An emergency meeting of JWP, presided over by Mehboob Khan Khitran, took cognisance of the situation that had emerged after the killing of JWP chief Nawab Akbar Khan Bugti and reposed confidence in the leadership of his heir Nawabzada Brahamdag Bugti besides Mir Aala Bugti and Agha Shahid Bugti. The meeting also discussed the situation after the resignation of some top JWP leaders.
Speaking on the occasion, JWP leader Mehboob Khan Khitran said the people who were elected to Senate and Balochistan's provincial assembly after the late Nawab Akbar Khan Bugti had reposed confidence in them and issued party tickets to them, adding that they should now tender resignations from these forums or clarify why they failed to do so. He said resigning from JWP was tantamount to saying goodbye to the mission of late Akbar Bugti.
Khitran said: "The son of Nawab Bugti is very respectful for us but nobody should malign the party leadership". After the resignations of central leadership, the situation had become very complicated and there was unrest among the cadre because of the absence of a party line, he said, adding: "Under such circumstances the central leadership should evolve a strategy".-PR
