The news has shaken up the political and bureaucracy circles in the country. There was a furore in the Balochistan Assembly where opposition parties protested against massive corruption in the province. Former CM Balochistan said that he will present himself for accountability as well.

The civil bureaucracy and secretariat officials convened a meeting after the corruption scandal. They discussed the situation in the province and the postings in the province over political grounds.
