SARGODHA: Pir of Sial Sharif Muhammad Hameeduddin Sialvi has pledged to continue move against Law Minister Rana Sanaullah for his resignation, adding that the Khatm-i-Nubuwat conference will be held at Dhobi Ghat ground (Faisalabad) today (Sunday) and about 50 parliamentarians will announce their resignations.

A spokesman for the Sial Sharif shrine has claimed that a majority of caretakers of various eminent shrines will also participate in the conference. He claims that chairmen and councillors of union councils will also announce their resignations.

Right now, two MNAs Sheikh Muhammad Akram from Jhang and Maulana Rehmatullah (Chiniot) and MPAs Ghulam Nizamuddin Sialvi from Sargodha and Ghulam Bibi Bharwana (Jhang) have submitted their resignations to Hameeduddin Sialvi. Others will [likely to] announce their resignations in Khatm-i-Nubawat conference scheduled to be held today in Faisalabad.

The spokesman says the Pir of Sial Sharif will not announce the resignations of parliamentarians rather they will personally submit resignations to Hameeduddin Sialvi in the public meeting after making announcement.
