This announcement follows MQM-Pakistan’s denial of any change, with the party stating that if a new appointment was planned, they would have been consulted.

Kamran Tessori’s previous appointment surprised the MQM-P Rabita Committee, as his name was not among the three candidates proposed by the party.

Under a pre-election agreement between PPP and PML-N, the Sindh-ruling party selected candidates for the presidency and Senate Chairman, while the PML-N chose the prime minister and National Assembly speaker.
