The Lahore High Court (LHC) has restored Punjab Chief Minister Pervaiz Elahi and
the provincial cabinet after suspending the governor’s denotification order.
Headed by Justice Abid Aziz Sheikh, a five-member bench heard
the petition filed by Elahi challenging Governor Punjab Balighur Rehman’s act of de-notifying him as
the provincial chief minister.
The lawyer representing Punjab CM, Ali Zafar, pleaded with the LHC bench to giv
e direction after nullifying the governor’s denotification order.
Ali Zafar argued that the court can order the government to bring the no-trust motion. The LHC judge rejected the option and remarked that the court wants to stop the misuse of the interim relief to
the party.
“We would restore the cabinet but you will need to give an assurance that our order will not be misused. We can give y
ou more time. How can we stop the constitutional process of the d
issolution of the assembly? However, we want to stop creating such a situation.”
Announcing its orders, the court also reinstated the Punjab cabinet after the PTI leader submitted an undertaking that he would not dissolve
the provincial assembly until January 11.
The court adjourned its hearing until January 11.
In
the plea filed today, Elahi has requested to set aside the above order and requested to declare the Punjab Assembly’s s
ession summoned by the governor on Wednesday unlawful.
The petition stated: “It may kindly be declared that
the petitioner does not cease to hold his office as chief minister of Punjab and the d
issolution of
the provincial cabinet in the impugned order may kindly be declared unlawful.”
