PKR deputy president Azmin Ali has denied any attempts to remove Abdul Khalid Ibrahim as the Selangor Menteri Besar, saying that there is "no reason" for other Pakatan leaders in the state to remove Khalid.
"I don't know why this issue is cropping up again. Can't we give our opinions?" He said, referring to a recent memorandum sent by Pakatan backbenchers in the state assembly requesting Khalid's administration to allocate more funds for development in the state.
"We are not a pressure group, we just want to help improve state administration," he told reporters at the Parliament lobby.
He went on to call Abdul Khalid as a man of "conviction" and someone who is "incorruptible".
"There is no conflict here. The working relationship is good enough. We just don't want to be complacent," Azmin said.
He said that there are greater expectations from the Pakatan-led Selangor state government after the 13th general election, and thus the state has to deliver.
He went on to praise the administrative skills of Khalid in having raised the state reserves to RM3 billion in his first term as Menteri Besar.
"But how do we move on from here? The RM3 billion has to be spent wisely, and transparently, for benefit of the people," he said.
