Afghan government introduces 12 cabinet nominees to parliament for approval
Afghanistan's Second Vice President Sarwar Danish on Saturday introduced 12 nominee ministers to parliament for vote of confidence.

AVA- Afghanistan’s Second Vice President Sarwar Danish on Saturday introduced 12 nominee ministers to parliament for vote of confidence.
 
Danish described the nominees as qualified, honest and experienced people and urged lawmakers to approve them, so that “we can fill our cabinet soon and implement our plans.”
 
The list of candidates, however, did not include nominees for ministers of foreign affairs, education and information. The portfolio holders were among seven sacked by parliament a year ago, citing poor performance.
 
The list of minister-designates introduced to the parliament are:
 
    Tariq Shah Bahrami for defense minister
    Wais Barmak for interior minister
    Mohammad Shafiq Gul Agha Sherzai for frontiers and tribal affairs minister
    Yama Yari for public works minister
    Mustafa Mastoor economy minister
    Najibullah Khwaja Omari for higher education minister
    Nargis Nehan for mines and petroleum minister
    Faizullah Zaki for labour, social affairs, martyred and disabled minister
    Shahzad Gul Aryoubi for communications and IT minister
    Mohammad Hameed Tahmasi for transport minister
    Naseer Ahmad Durrani for agriculture, irrigation and livestock minister
    Mujib-ur-Rahman Karimi for rural rehabilitation and development minister
