Haji Ali Madad Jatk Responds to Speculations on Cabinet Changes and Accusations Against Sadiq Adozai

QUETTA:Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) senior leader and Provincial Assembly member, Haji Ali Madad Jatk, has stated that he is unaware of any potential changes within the Balochistan cabinet, adding that only the Chief Minister could make an official statement on this matter. He dismissed accusations from Sadiq Adozai, saying that Adozai has neither the stature nor the authority to stop his vehicle and behave disrespectfully.

Speaking to the media after the Balochistan Assembly session, Haji Ali Madad Jatk clarified that he had only heard rumors about cabinet changes on social media, but had no concrete information. “The Chief Minister can provide clarity on any changes in the cabinet, and once those decisions are made, everyone will be informed,” he added.

In response to a question about Sadiq Adozai, Jatk remarked that Adozai’s brother had contested the general elections against him and managed to secure only 120 votes across the entire constituency. However, during re-polling at 15 polling stations, Adozai’s support shifted to him. “Given the ratio of his votes, one can easily calculate how many votes Adozai received in those 15 polling stations,” he said.

Jatk further emphasized that he comes from a middle-class background and prides himself on practicing “honorable politics.” He accused Sadiq Adozai of being involved in smuggling, claiming that Adozai is still learning the ropes of politics. “He doesn’t have the authority to confront me in such a manner,” Jatk concluded.
