JAKARTA - Jakarta deputy governor candidate Rano Karno declared his resignation from his position as a member of Commission X of the DPR for the 2019-2024 period.
Rano made this decision after he was promoted by PDIP to accompany Pramono Anung in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada.
"As a member of the Indonesian House of Representatives, I have declared my resignation from Commission X," said Rano after undergoing a medical test at Tarakan Hospital, Central Jakarta, Friday, August 30.
The man who is familiarly called 'Doel' explained that his resignation as a member of Commission X of the DPR RI was still in progress. According to him, his resignation as a member of the DPR is a consequence of him running as a candidate for regional head according to the KPU's decision.
The same consequences also apply to his position as a elected member of the DPR for the 2024-2029 period from the Banten III electoral district.
"That's a consequence for me to carry out another task," said Bang Doel.
