Faisal Karim Kundi said that he will accept the party’s decision regarding his change.
He said that he is hearing about Governor’s rule only through the media. The responsibility of the province lies with the provincial government. I believe that the conditions of our province do not allow protests. There are many problems in the province, including law and order.
He further said that there is a provision for Governor’s rule in the constitution, but no one has discussed it with me. Till today, I say that there is no talk of Governor’s rule at present.
