MUZAFFARABAD – PTI AJK chapter leader Sardar Tanveer Ilyas has been elected unopposed as the new prime minister of Azad Jammu and Kashmir.
The seat of AJK PM was vacant after Abdul Qayyum Niazi resigned from premiership on April 14 after PTI members filed a no-confidence motion against him.
President AJK, Barrister Sultan Mahmood has called a session of the Legislative Assembly today to conduct the election for the new Leader of the House. Ilyas was elected unopposed after the joint opposition boycotted the PM election.
PTI leader, in a social media post, wrote "I’m grateful to all those who voted for me today; particularly, my party chairman Imran Khan for reposing trust in me. Equally thankful to the people of my constituency for choosing me as their representative."
