PML-N MNA resigns in protest

Published December 18, 2016 Updated December 18, 2016 12:00am

Mian Mohammad Farooq of Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) resigned from his National Assembly seat on Saturday after the party refused his son ticket of the district council chairman. According to details, Farooq sent his resignation to the party chief Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif. In his resignation, addressed to the prime minister, Farooq said that he started his political career 32 years ago under the leadership of Nawaz Sharif and was ending it when Nawaz is the premier of the country.
He also stated that he was elected MNA for the sixth time in the general elections of 2013. "There should be a difference between a loyal person and an opportunist. I will remain loyal to you till I die," he said in the letter. Mian Mohammad Farooq was elected to the parliament from Faisalabad constituency of NA-80. The PML-N leader was upset with the party leadership as his son was not given the party ticket to contest the election of chairman district council in the local councils election.
