MQM Pakistan sends five names for the slot of Governor Sindh

*KARACHI: The Muttahida Qaumi Movement–Pakistan (MQM-P) has forwarded five names to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif for the coveted office of the Sindh governor. *

Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) has sought names from MQM-P, the coalition partner in the Centre, for the Sindh governor post.

It is learnt that MQM-P has proposed the names of former Karachi mayor Waseem Akhtar, senior party leader Amir Khan, Nasreen Jaleel, Kishwar Zehra and Amir Chushti for Sindh governor post.

The names were sent to PM Shehbaz after Rabita Committee’s nod, sources within MQM-Pakistan told ARY News.

It is pertinent to mention here that the seat fell vacant after President Arif Alvi accepted the resignation of Sindh Governor Imran Ismail, who resigned from the post immediately after Shehbaz Sharif took oath as prime minister on April 11.
