Gen Asim Saleem Bajwa. ISLAMABAD: Lt Gen (retd) Asim Saleem Bajwa has decided to step down as a top prime ministerial aide shortly after coming clean on scandalous allegations of assets concealment in a detailed rebuttal shared on the popular micro-blogging site Twitter. Asim Bajwa announced that he would resign as special assistant to the prime minister on information and broadcasting, but would continue as chairman of CPEC Authority in a move that political commentators say puts the media buzz to rest and reflects the change and is a must to ensure all are equal before the law. SAPM Asim said he would submit his resignation to Prime Minister Imran Khan on Friday. I hope the prime minister will allow me to dedicate my full attention to CPEC projects. Political analysts believe Lt Gen (retd) Asim’s move has set an excellent precedence in a country where the ruling elite always resorts to mudslinging and buck-passing instead of facing up to the charges against them. Lt Gen (retd) Asim did not indulge in political rhetoric since the levelling of the blatant allegations against him and his family in a news report published on an “obscure” website. Asim Bajwa’s decision to resign came shortly after he issued a detailed rebuttal to the allegations against him and his family.
