Sharing the resignation on his official X account, he stated that after much deliberation, he has decided to resign from the positions. He expressed his belief that it is essential to be present on the ground and to have direct access to the party founder, Imran Khan, for effective leadership of the party at this time.

The former federal minister added that he has served the party for 13 years and will continue to work as a worker now. Following the May 9 incidents, authorities registered a number of cases against Hammad Azhar. He has been absent from the public eye since.
