Opposition Leader Expresses Concern Over Attempts to Remove Central Bank Chief
Opposition leader Fayyaz Ismail expressed concern over attempts by the ruling People's National Congress (PNC) to remove Ali Hashim as Governor of the Maldives Monetary Authority (MMA). The PNC-controlled Public Accounts Committee recommended removal to President Muizzu. Hashim declined to appear before the committee citing health. Ismail criticized the move as shortsighted during economic uncertainty. Analysts say Hashim's tenure likely ending due to PNC's supermajority of 75 out of 93 seats.
