Afghan Acting Minister of Energy and Water Mohammad Gul Khulmi has resigned due to health issues.
In his resignation letter, Khulmi said that he was advised by doctors to use an oxygen machine while sleeping during the nights so that his brain could get adequate oxygen.
He said that he was advised to take one-month rest and avoid breathing polluted air.
President Ashraf Ghani has accepted Khulmi’s resignation, who had been serving in the post for the last one year and half.
Khan Mohammad Takal is now caretaker of the ministry, its spokesman said.
