KARACHI: Governor Sindh Dr Ishratul Ebad Khan, a member of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM), resigned from his post, Express News reported Saturday.
He has faxed his resignation to the Presidency and Governor House.
He abruptly departed for Dubai on late Friday night and intends to stay there for the next few days after which he will travel to London.
According to sources, Dr Ebad felt that he was not fulfilling his role as Governor and was concerned that he was not being informed about the situation in the province or the measures being taken against it.
This is the third time that Dr Ebad has decided to resign from his post. He announced that he was leaving the government in February 2013 and before that on June 27, 2011.
He assumed office on December 2, 2002 was the youngest and longest serving Governor of Sindh since Pakistan’s inception.
At least I smell some big problem propping up for Karachi.
MQM is undergoing a big trauma these days, probably the most nerves testing time for this organization. MQM will have to dilute the sole leadership among best of best individuals and there is no drought of it. And give up armed race.
MQM must reshape their doctrine before its too late. They should demand now administrative division of urban lands from feudal controlled lands of Sind.
They potentially can make these parts most enlightened, prosperous and modern parts of extremely retrogressing country. Needless to say MQM have always let Jam’at enjoy religious freedom.
