CM Elahi signs summary for dissolving Punjab Assembly.

Punjab Chief Minister Chaudhry Parvez Elahi on Thursday signed the summary for the dissolution of the provincial assembly.

The development came after Elahi, who had managed to secure a confidence vote from the Punjab Assembly in the early hours of Thursday, called on PTI chief Imran Khan at his Zaman Park residence in Lahore.

In a brief one-line advice addressed to Punjab Governor Balighur Rehman, Elahi said: 'I Parvez Elahi, chief minister of Punjab, hereby advise you to dissolve the provincial assembly.'

Initially, a picture of summary, printed on a plain piece of paper, was circulated on Twitter by several PTI leaders. But Elahi's son Moonis later tweeted a copy of the summary on the chief minister's official letterhead, bearing both his signature and today's date.

'Promise fulfilled. May we see you back in the prime minister seat soon @ImranKhanPTI,' Moonis said.

The Punjab governor, meanwhile, confirmed that he had received the summary sent by Elahi.

'KP Assembly to be dissolved day after tomorrow'

Speaking to the media after Elahi's meeting with Imran, PTI leader Fawad Chaudhry had announced that Elahi had signed the summary and the advice had been forwarded to the Punjab governor.

'If governor does not accept the advice then, the assembly is automatically dissolved after 48 hours.'

Fawad also said that the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly would be dissolved 'day after tomorrow'.

He thanked Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) leaders Moonis and Hussain Elahi as well as their lawmakers for standing with the PTI. He said that the country was headed towards general elections, adding that the PTI and Imran had 'fulfilled their promise'.
