In a recent development, Muhammad Jahanzeb Khan, the deputy chairman of the Planning Commission, has tendered his resignation. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has accepted the resignation and assigned the responsibility to Planning Minister Ahsan Iqbal.
According to sources, there were rumors of a rift between the minister and chairman, which may have led to the resignation. However, the exact reasons behind the resignation are not yet clear.
The Planning Commission plays a crucial role in formulating and implementing development projects in Pakistan. The deputy chairman’s resignation may have implications for the commission’s work and the country’s development agenda.
The government has ensured continuity by entrusting the planning minister with the additional responsibility of the deputy chairman. However, the situation highlights the need for stability and cohesion within the government’s ranks to effectively drive development and progress.
