The most recent casualty of the interim regime is the Punjab advocate
Advocate General Ahmed Owais was fired from his position by the caretaker Punjab government, which continues to remove previous government appointees.
In addition to Owais, approximately 97 Advocate General Office law officers were let go from their positions.
Chaudhary Muhammad Javad Yaqoob has been named the additional advocate general in his place until a full-time AGP is appointed in the province.
It is important to note that authorities appointed Punjab Additional Inspector General (AIG) Bilal Siddque Kamyana as the new CCPO of Lahore as part of a reshuffle in the Punjab bureaucracy following the appointment of the caretaker chief minister. On Monday, Zahid Akhter Zaman was appointed as the new chief secretary of the province.
The transfer of Punjab CM Principal Secretary Muhammad Khan Bhatti marked the beginning of the top-tier reshuffle in Punjab.
Bhatti has been instructed to report to the Secretariat of the Punjab Assembly.
