Nasir Mahmood Khosa
Nasir Mahmood Khosa is a retired Pakistani bureaucrat who belonged to the Pakistan Administrative Service and served in BPS-22 grade (highest attainable rank for a serving officer). He was promoted to the rank of Federal Secretary in 2010.[1]
Khosa is known for having served at extremely high profile positions such as the Principal Secretary to the Prime Minister of Pakistan- the top gun of the country's bureaucracy. Khosa also holds the honour of having served as the administrative boss of two provinces as Chief Secretary Punjab and Chief Secretary Balochistan. He also served as Executive Director at the World Bank from 2013-2017.[2]
Khosa is the brother of Justice Asif Saeed Khosa, a senior judge at the Supreme Court of Pakistan and Tariq Khosa, former Director General of the Federal Investigation Agency.
On 28 May 2018, Khosa was nominated to become the caretaker Chief Minister of Punjab ahead of the 2018 general elections.[3] He was nominated by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf to which Shehbaz Sharif agreed. However after the nomination finalised, the opposition party raised some concerns regarding the appointment of Khosa, which lead to Khosa opting out and excused himself from assuming the responsibilities of caretaker Chief Minister.[4]
