Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Governor Engineer Shaukatullah on Tuesday announced the dissolution of provincial assembly upon the completion of its five-year term.
Outgoing chief minister Amir Haider Khan Hoti late on Monday night advised the governor to dissolve the assembly.
In accordance with the consensus between leader of the house Amir Haider Khan Hoti and leader of the opposition Akram Khan Durrani, Justice (r) Tariq Pervez will be administered oath as the caretaker chief minister today (Wednesday).
Through some highly-placed sources, Pakistan Today has come to know that a seven-member caretaker cabinet would also be administered oath on Wednesday by Governor Shaukatullah.
The sources said three to five caretaker ministers would be inducted in the provincial cabinet later.
Chief Minister Amir Haider Khan Hoti will remain in office until the administration of oath to Justice (r) Tariq Pervez. He is likely to leave the Chief Minister’s House on Wednesday evening.
His family has already abandoned the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa House.
Besides the chief minister, almost all of his cabinet members have vacated official residences and moved to their own houses.
Almost all outgoing ministers had already abandoned their offices a week ago.
