(Channel News) LAHORE – The constitutional situation in Punjab has gotten worse when Governor Baligh-ur-Rehman de-notified Chief Minister Pervaiz Elahi late Thursday night.

According to the notification, it is thought that the Chief Minister lacks the trust of the majority of assembly members.

The Punjab cabinet has also been disbanded, according to the notice.

According to the notice, Pervaiz Elahi will remain in office until the next House leader is elected.

The notification read: “Consequent to the facts that Ch. Pervaiz Elahi, Chief Minister Punjab refrained from obtaining vote of confidence at 1600 hrs yesterday, in line with an Order under Article 130(7) of the Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan issued under my hand on 19t December 2022, in line with Rule 22(7) of the Rules of Procedure of the Provincial Assembly of the Punjab, 1997, and that he still has not done so even after the lapse of another twenty four hours, I am satisfied that he does not command the confidence of the majority of the members of the Punjab Assembly, and therefore ceases to hold his office with immediate effect.”.
