QUETTA: Balochistan Chief Minister Abdul Qudoos Bizenjo on Thursday demanded Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi to retract his statement on Senate Chairman or otherwise he will lead a protest march to the capital city. 

While addressing an inauguration ceremony in Lahore on March 24, Prime Minister Abbasi had earlier called for a new chairman Senate,  alleging that the recently elected Sadiq Sanjrani holds no respect as votes were bought in his favour.

PM calls for new Senate chairman, says Sanjrani holds no respect

Nawaz can give party policy from prison as well, remarks Shahid Khaqan Abbasi

He also urged the members of the opposition to jointly nominate a new Senate chairman.

Speaking in a joint press conference along with Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan, he said: "the entire Balochistan is shocked over premier's irresponsible statement on Senate Chairman. With Nawaz's ouster, we hoped that from now on the PM secretariat will be open for the people of Balochistan but to no avail."  

CM Bizenjo said that the prime minister has hurt the people of his province. 

The premier in a direct reference to Senate Chairman Sadiq Sanjrani said: ?the Senate chairman also serves as the acting president and it is a disgrace to the country that a man who bought votes became the leader of the upper house. Can there be any respect for the country after that??.
