Governor Syed Zahoor Ahmed Agha has summoned a session of the Balochistan
Assembly on Oct 29 (Friday) for the election of the new leader of the house and
its speaker.
Meanwhile,
Bizenjo vowed to bring change on ground once he is elected as chief minister.
He also thanked former Jam Kamal Khan Alyani, who resigned as the chief
minister on Sunday, for the role he played in saving the BAP.
Qudoos Bizenjo was elected speaker of the assembly after the 2018 general elections. He was the candidate of CM Baluchistan at that time but Jam kamal was chosen as CM. Bizenjo was not happy with that decision. Finally he ousted jam kamal with the help of opposition parties and a group of angry legislatures of BAP.
Qudoos Bizenjo served as CM Baluchistan for nearly 06 months in 2018 before the general elections.He served as
the 16th Chief Minister of Balochistan from 13 January 2018 to 7 June
2018 and served as Deputy Speaker of the Provincial Assembly of Balochistan
from 2013 to 2015. He served in the provincial Balochistan cabinet between 2002
and 2013, as the minister of livestock.
