The federal cabinet is currently gathering to discuss the next steps in the legal process in light of the recent comprehensive decision from the Supreme Court over the contentious rejection of the no-trust vote against then-prime minister Imran Khan by the former deputy speaker of the National Assembly.
Suo moto, or on its own initiative, is a constitutional provision that was invoked by the Supreme Court in its comprehensive decision on Qasim Suri’s motion. The federal cabinet is now convening to discuss legal actions following the comprehensive decision of the Supreme Court on the previous National Assembly deputy speaker’s denial of the no-trust vote against then-prime minister Imran Khan.
In a suo motu lawsuit brought by Qasim Suri under Article 5 of the Constitution, the Supreme Court rendered a thorough decision. Whether the stated acts attract Article 6 of the Constitution (high treason) is also left open to be determined by the Parliamentarians, who may either leave the door open for such unconstitutional acts or take suitable measures to stop such a mess in the future.
The meeting that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif is in charge of presiding over has a four-point agenda that has been established.
On the agenda is the endorsement of an amnesty program that will apply to foreign nationals working in Pakistan. Cabinet members are going to get a briefing on the current flood situation from the National Disaster Management Authority.
Approval of the Economic Coordination Committee’s actions from July 5 and 7 is also on the agenda. At the meeting’s outset, PM Shehbaz congratulated Miftah Ismail, minister of finance, and Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, minister of foreign affairs.
