Majeed Malik quits PML to protest Musharraf’s re-election plan
Islamabad, Sep 17: Major General (retired) Abdul Majeed Malik, a senior vice president of the ruling Pakistan Muslim League (PML), has resigned to register his protest against President Pervez Musharraf’s bid to get himself re-elected for another five years.
“I am not in a position to prevent the party leadership from supporting the re-election of a president in uniform,” the Daily Times quoted him, as saying.
Major General (retired) Malik has submitted his resignation to PML President Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain and Secretary General Mushahid Hussain.
He would, however, continue as the member of the PML Central Working Committee (CWC). (With Inputs from ANI)
