Atta Tarar said Pervaiz Elahi was no more chief minister ethically, constitutionally and legally. Special Assistant to Prime Minister on Interior and Legal Affairs Attaullah Tarar has said that the Punjab governor can de-notify the chief minister on failing to obtain the vote of confidence from the provincial assembly. Atta Tarar said Pervaiz Elahi was no more chief minister ethically, constitutionally and legally.
Talking to media outside the Governor s House on Wednesday night, he said it was the Governor s privilege when he decided to de-notify Pervaiz Elahi from the Chief Minister’s Office.
He said that in violation of the constitution, the Governor could use his powers against the chief minister.
He said that Punjab Governor Muhammad Balighur Rehman had asked Pervaiz Elahi to obtain the vote of trust from the house on solid grounds.
Tarar said that a minister was removed suddenly, MPAs were resigning and new ministers were being appointed without the consent of the party chairman of the PTI and such things proved that Pervaiz Elahi had lost confidence in the house.
He said that the Governor had expressed his humbleness so far. He said that now Pervaiz Elahi was no more chief minister of the province ethically, constitutionally and legally.
To a question, he said there was a big difference between the Manzoor Watto case and the current chief ministership. Tarar said that Pervaiz Elahi did not have the confidence of 186 members of the assembly as if he had the support of the required number, he would have obtained the vote of confidence.
