Karachi: Former Finance Minister Miftah Ismail Tuesday resigned as Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N) Sindh’s Secretary General (SG) over difference with party leadership.
As per details, Miftah resigned after no action was taken against the rioters at Karsaz House by party workers at PML-N House.
It merits mention that few weeks back, enraged workers of the PML-N in Karachi stormed into their own provincial party office and vandalized the facility, smashed the windowpanes, and tore posters of the party’s provincial leadership, in protest over “unjustified” distribution of party tickets for the upcoming local government elections in cantonment boards in the metropolis.
Miftah worked as Finance Minister during last tenure of PML-N and also contested by-election in NA-249 on ticket of the party.
It may be recalled that in July party workers had rioted over the distribution of cantonment election tickets in exchange for money.
Meanwhile, PML-N president Shahbaz Sharif had formed a committee and directed them to investigate the incident.
