Federal Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah said on Thursday that Punjab Governor Balighur Rehman is likely to issue the notification to denotify Chief Minister Pervaiz Elahi today.

“Elahi constitutionally no more holds the CM office,” said Sanaullah, adding that the federal government will issue the notification as soon as it receives the governor’s order.
The interior minister once again reiterated that Governor Rule can be imposed in Punjab for a period of two months after approval from the cabinet.
Replying to a question about the PDM candidate for the CM post, he said that the Pakistan Muslim League – Nawaz (PML-N) has not finalized any name for the CM ship.
Rana Sanaullah said that PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif will return to Pakistan before the general elections, in 2023.
Earlier Governor Punjab Baligh ur Rehman directed Chief Minister (CM) Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi to seek a vote of confidence from the Punjab Assembly on 21st December.
According to details, Governor Punjab has forwarded a letter to Chief Minister’s Secretariat, directing CM Pervaiz Elahi to seek a vote of confidence from the Punjab Assembly on December 21.
As CM Punjab hasn’t taken the vote of confidence therefore constitutionally it is likely that he will remove from CM’s seat.
