This action underscores the governor’s influence over the provincial administration and adherence to constitutional guidelines.
Governor’s Decision
On Wednesday, Governor Kundi signed the summary to officially remove Mashal Yousafzai from her position as adviser on social welfare.

Rejection of Previous Summary
Earlier, the governor had returned a summary regarding the appointment of a sixth adviser to the KP cabinet. He noted that Section 130(11) of the Constitution limits the Chief Minister to only five advisers. Therefore, the summary for this additional position was sent back to the provincial government for revision.
