Khyber Pakthunkhwa (KP) Chief Minister Mahmood Khan has announced to send a summary to Governor for dissolution of the provincial assembly on January 17 (Tuesday).
Taking to Twitter, the KP chief minister said that following the orders of PTI Chairman Imran Khan, the summary for dissolving the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly would be sent to the governor on Tuesday.
“Inshallah the PTI will return with a two-thirds majority,” he said.

خیبر پختونخوا اسمبلی کی تحلیل کیلئے سمری بروز منگل گورنر کو ارسال کردی جائے گی۔
انشاءاللہ تحریک انصاف دوتہائی اکثریت سے دوبارہ حکومت میں آئے گی۔— Mahmood Khan (@IMMahmoodKhan) January 15, 2023
The development follows the dissolution of the Punjab Assembly as PTI Chairman Imran Khan moves closer to his pledge to leave the provincial legislatures, where he holds office, in order to distance himself from the “current corrupt political system.”
The KP CM had previously stated that he would dissolve the provincial legislature as soon as Imran gave him the order to do so. He had reaffirmed this position on Saturday.
“I have always said I am a humble worker of Imran Khan. I owe this office to him. I wouldn’t hesitate for a minute if he asks me to dissolve the provincial assembly,” he had said while addressing the oath-taking ceremony of the newly-elected body of the Peshawar Press Club.
