The PTI leader said Umar continues to be part and parcel of the senior PTI leadership as they all value his role.

Asad Umar stepped down in a cabinet shuffle on Thursday. The government named Abdul Hafeez Sheikh, a former World Bank official who served as finance minister from 2010-2013, as adviser on finance, replacing Umar.
