Islamabad: Pakistan People Party (PPP) stalwart Mustafa Nawaz Khokhar Thursday has formally resigned as a senator after it emerged that the party was unhappy with his political position.
According to details, Khokhar had submitted his resignation to Chairman Senate Sadiq Sanjrani.
The manuscript of the resignation includes that he has resigned from the position as per the recommendation of Senator Farooq H Naek.
“Allhamdulillah, I have formally submitted my resignation today. I’m thankful for the positive response & support across party lines which was far beyond my imagination,” he said in a tweet after submitting the resignation.
For those who are speculating about my political future, let me state clearly that I’m not joining any political party. I will try hard to maintain my independence. 2/2

He clearly mentioned that, ‘he would not join any political party and would try hard to maintain his independence.’
In a series of tweets, the PPP leader said he met a senior leader from the party today, who told him that the party leadership "wasn’t happy with my political positions and wanted my resignation from the Senate".
"I gladly agreed to resign [...] will be submitting my resignation in person to Chairman Senate tomorrow, Insha[A]llah," Bilawal's former spokesman said.
As a political worker, Khokhar said, he cherishes his right to express hi opinions on matters of public interest.
"Thankful to the party leadership for giving me the Senate seat from Sindh. Differences aside, It’s been a wonderful journey with them and wish them the best."
