Till date, in volley of resignations by the office bearers of PPP at District and Tehsil level at Havelian, Abbottabad, Haripur, Mansehra along with office bearers of Labour wing, Lawyers wing and of more then 52 local union council units have resigned. Resignation of Waseem Khan Jadoon was set be another blow to the PPP in Hazara and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa as he was considered to the oldest worker with more then 22 years affiliation and he was one of the few members of PPP who was called by Benazir Bhutto at UK and Islamabad on different occasion and he was also offered jobs by the former prime minister but he preferred to stay as worker in the Party. Waseem Khan Jadoon remarked that PPP present leadership at province and central level is ignoring the party workers who are the back bone of the party and dishearted workers are very much disappointed with the treatment which is being given to the workers and added that this will be a great loss to the party and damage done by anti workers decisions will be irreparable loss. He added that due to tiring efforts by the party divisional , district and Tehsil office bearers, PPP has found roots among masses despite all hardships and in coming elections, PPP will be the major loser in Hazara division. However he also lashes out at the role of PPP MPA’s and others for their role in the issue of awarding of ticket of Senate to Shamroze Khan Jadoon and later withdrawal of ticket. Meanwhile Shamaroz Khan Jadoon alongwith divisional leadership of PPP has also decided to formally announced their resignation on Monday (today) during a press conference.
