Balochistan: Aslam Raisani's PPP membership suspended

Pakistan Today
Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) has decided to suspend the primary membership of the Balochistan Chief Minister Aslam Khan Raisani for the next three months. Talking to Private Channel, PPP Kalat Division President Rafique Sajjad said that Raisani’s membership of the party has been suspended for deviating from party’s policies. “He (Raisani) is also damaging party’s reputation,” he said, adding earlier a notice was issued to the Balochistan chief minister but he did not mend his ways. Sajjad said that neither were the issues of the PPP workers were being addressed, nor was Raisani spending sufficient time in Quetta. He said that Raisani had been voted into power by PPP workers but the chief minister was not taking steps to solve their problems. Sajjad added that the PPP had weakened in Balochistan due to the actions and policies of Chief Minister Raisani. Sajjad said that Raisani’s membership has been suspended after taking into confidence PPP provincial chief Mir Sadiq Umrani.
