Sardar Akhtar Mengal, an ally of the federal government and head of Balochistan National Party-Mengal, did not attend the oath-taking ceremony of the federal cabinet on Tuesday in protest against Chaghi incident. Sources privy to the development revealed that the BNP-Mengal chief refused to become part of the federal cabinet as he did not attend the oath-taking ceremony despite being invited. All efforts of the government to persuade Sardar Akhtar Mengal last night were in vain, the sources added.
He demanded formation of a probe commission on Chaghi firing incident. =DNA
