LAHORE: Punjab Information Minister Fayyazul Hasan Chohan said on Saturday that the federal and Punjab government has settled all issues with the Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid leaders on all matters of mutual interest.

The reports of friction between the coalition partner surfaced after the resignation of PML-Q's only Punjab minister Hafiz Ammar Yasir against alleged interference in his ministry by the CM Secretariat.

“I am resigning because of the constant interference in the affairs of my ministry by Secretary to Chief Minister Dr Raheel Siddiqui, who is another Tauqeer Shah in the making,” said Hafiz.

The minister said that the Chaudhry brothers are intelligent politicians, who know very well who is with and against them.

“Chaudhry brothers are important pillars of this system. Ammar Yasir does not have any direct issues with the chief minister. If he had spoken about the issue with the chief minister, the issue could have been sorted,” he said. “Ammar will remain with us.”

The Chaudhry brothers, in the past, have expressed their reservations on the government officials’ attitude in meetings with the premier and his close aide Jahangir Tareen.
