Earlier during the meeting of general council of PML(Q) Khyber Pakhtunkhwa he had given deadline of one week to the leadership of his party that the written agreement between PPP and PML(Q) should be publicized.
But the leadership of PML(Q) has failed to remove his apprehension and after expiry of time limit , he sent his resignation as federal minister to the party head of PML(Q) Chaudhary Shujaat.
While talking to Media Engineer Ameer Muqam said that he submitted the resignation only as a federal minister and not from the party as he is still provincial president of PML(Q).
He said that President of PML(Q) Chaudhary Shujaat Hussain, Senior Minister Chaudhary Pervez Elahi, Mushahid Hussain Syed and even President Asif Zardari met him and tried to convince him.
“I told them that it was the decision of general council and I will not take my decision back until the apprehensions of PML(Q) leaders of KP and FATA would not be removed .
He said that ministry was not his issue and I will remain loyal to my party”, Ameer Muqam added .
