PESHAWAR: Governor Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Shah Farman on Sunday denied reports circulated on social media of his removal from the post, ARY NEWS reported.
Governor KP Shah Farman said that there was no truth in reports of his removal and certain people are propagating fake news for their political gains.
He said that he had met Prime Minister Imran Khan at most thrice in the past week and the premier did not discuss any such matter during the meetings.
“Neither the issue is reported in the mainstream media or print media then the question arises as to who is running this fake news and on whose behest?” he asked.
The denial from the KP governor came a day after Prime Minister Imran Khan expressed confidence over the performance of Punjab Chief Minister Usman Buzdar, days after reports of his removal were circulated on social media.
During a meeting with Sardar Usman Ahmad Khan Buzdar in Lahore today (Saturday), the prime minister lauded the measures taken by the Punjab government to curtail the spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19).
