The federal government would accept Punjab IG’s request.


Lahore: Punjab Inspector General (IG) Faisal Shahkar has resigned from his post on Sunday (today), citing personal reasons.
Refusing to work under the Punjab government, Shahkar wrote a letter to the establishment division and requested an immediate transfer.
In his letter, the IG stated that ‘it is difficult for him to continue his current assignments’ under the provincial government.
“It is not possible for me to continue on my current assignments, due to personal reasons, therefore, requested that my services may kindly be withdrawn with immediate effect from Punjab government and placed at the disposal of the federal government,” the letter read.
Sources privy to the matter stated that the federal government would accept Punjab IG’s request.
Notably, Faisal Shahkar has been appointed as the United Nations Police Adviser in the Department of Peace Operations (DPO) by UN Secretary-General António Guterres on November 1.
Faisal has also served in several senior positions with the Pakistan Police, including as an Additional Inspector of Police in Punjab, as well as Regional Police Chief.
