Abdul Quddus Bizenjo has stepped down from his post as Balochistan Assembly speaker, Aaj News reported on Monday.

Bizenjo has tendered his resignation to the Balochistan Assembly secretary. His resignation comes a day after Jam Kamal stepped down as Balochistan's chief minister. Governor Balochistan Syed Zahoor Ahmad Agha accepted his resignation.

Earlier, Kamal and estranged members of his Balochistan Awami Party (BAP) did not show any flexibility over the resignation of the CM, and the no-trust motion.
