ISLAMABAD—Fahd Husain, a special assistant to the prime minister has stepped down after a stint of nearly one year.
Husain quit an illustrious career in journalism in May last year to serve in the public office. He had the status of a federal minister.
“I have stepped down as Special Assistant to PM after productive stint of a year,” he announced on Twitter. “Grateful to PM @CM Shehbaz for giving me opportunity to serve in public office. I witnessed first-hand how PM navigated multiple fault lines in tough times. None other could have done it better.”
Husain, a nephew of PMLN leader Senator Mushahid Hussian, was the first journalist to get an official position in the coalition government.
Before taking up his position in the government, Fahd was a resident editor of Dawn in Islamabad. He was one of the country's leading journalists with three decades of experience working in newspapers and television both in Pakistan and abroad.
He served as a newspaper reporter, editor, columnist, TV anchor, and news director during this career. He also spearheaded the launch of three news channels.
Before joining Dawn in October 2019, Fahd worked as executive director of news at Express News TV and executive editor of the daily The Express Tribune.
