Islamabad, April 4 : Amid political turmoil in the country, National Security Adviser (NSA) Moeed Yusuf on Monday resigned from his position, the Express Tribune reported. “Today, I leave extremely satisfied and content, most of all because I know that the NSA’s office and the NSD are vibrant institutions with an exceptional team that will continue to make Pakistan proud,” Moeed wrote on his official Twitter handle. He thanked Prime Minister Imran Khan for trusting him with the immense responsibility and allowing him to do justice to his role as NSA. “Few individuals are fortunate enough to get an opport ty to serve their country in a high office. Even fewer get to do so at my age. By the grace of Allah, not only did I receive this honour, but it has been an incredible two-and-a-half-year journey that I will always cherish,” he said. Moeed also thanked all others, who allowed the office of the National Security Adviser and the National Security Division/Strategic Policy Planning Cell to contribute to the national cause. “I am extremely grateful to my team for reposing trust in me when I was in office and ensuring that together we were able to achieve several milestones that will Insha’Allah have a lasting impact on the country.” “It has been an absolute privilege and honour to serve our great country! Thank you again. Pakistan Paindabad!” Moeed’s resignation came a day later President Arif Alvi dissolved the National Assembly on the advice of Premier Imran, hours after National Assembly Deputy Speaker Qasim Suri declared the opposition’s no-confidence motion as “unconstitutional” and prorogued the House without voting on it. The Prime Minister advised the President to dissolve the Assembly under Article 58 of the Constitution. Imran took the decision of sending the summary after accusing the joint opposition of working with the ted States to overthrow his government. XC GNK RJ
