Governor of Punjab Baligh-ur-Rehman will be dismissed by President Dr Arif Alvi based on misconduct if the governor issues a notification to denotify CM Punjab, “We will play with it (notification) like a paper-rocket,” said Fawad Chaudhry.
Adding to this, he said that a reference can be sent to the federal government on behalf of President Alvi, meanwhile, according to the constitution, the chief minister will remain in his position as long as the number game is with him.
It is illegal for the Punjab governor to denotify CM Elahi, as he got the majority vote of confidence.
