Earlier, the ministries of health and local government were also taken away from Muzaffar.
Information Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon will now be taking care of the KWSB.
KSWB
The appointment of Muzaffar as the chairperson of KWSB had come as a surprise to many, including members of the opposition parties in Sindh Assembly as the post was traditionally held by the city mayor or district Nazim.
Muzaffar – during his short tenure – took strict action against those involved in tanker mafia and demolished many illegal water hydrants.
Zardari connection
Muzaffar is former president Asif Ali Zardari’s foster brother and was known by his nickname Tappi – an alias he disowns now.
He contested the May 11 elections from PS-88, Ghora Bari, in Thatta.
