The announcement was made by the spokesperson to the Speaker, Kamaludden Shawai, who confirmed that the Assembly had received the governor’s letter.

The nomination has now been formally tabled for consideration and approval.


Garo’s nomination is in line with constitutional provisions that allow a governor to appoint a deputy when a vacancy occurs.

The process requires screening and confirmation by the Assembly before the appointment becomes official.


The position became vacant after the resignation of the former deputy governor, Abdussalam Gwarzo, in March 2026.

The upcoming screening will determine whether Garo takes over the role.
