What happened at the Prime Minister’s House on Saturday night?

In the midst of the uproar of the no-confidence motion against the Prime Minister, extraordinary activity was witnessed in the Prime Minister’s House on Saturday night.

  And during this time some historic decisions and events took place, some in front of the cameras and most of the closed rooms.

Parliament House was the center of activity throughout the day on Saturday, with speeches sometimes held and meetings adjourned, with government and opposition members holding talks between the Speaker and the National Assembly.

But in the evening, when the National Assembly session was adjourned for Iftar, the center of activity suddenly became the Prime Minister’s House.

Prime Minister Imran Khan convened an emergency meeting of the federal cabinet, along with his legal and political advisers, the speaker and deputy speaker, and some bureaucrats.

The cabinet meeting approved the release of the alleged cable to some officials, which former Prime Minister Imran Khan said contained details of a US plot to overthrow his government.

Meanwhile, the Speaker of the National Assembly and the Deputy Speaker also reached the Prime Minister’s House but were asked to wait in the lounge next to the Prime Minister’s Office.

Meanwhile, two uninvited guests also reached the Prime Minister’s House by helicopter, surrounded by extraordinary security and well-armed men and met the Prime Minister in private for about a quarter of an hour.

Obviously what happened in this meeting? No information is available, but reliable and credible government sources who later provided information about the meeting said:He told the BBC that the meeting had not been very pleasant.

An hour ago, the then Prime Minister Imran Khan had ordered the removal of a senior official present at the meeting. Therefore, the sudden arrival of these uninvited guests was unexpected for the Prime Minister. Imran Khan was waiting for the helicopter but his guesses and expectations about the passengers of this helicopter proved to be completely wrong.

Sources said that the former prime minister was expecting that his newly appointed officials would reach the Prime Minister’s House in this helicopter and after that the noise which started from Parliament House after the Supreme Court decision would subside. Had happened

It may have happened, but the problem was that the legal document (notification) that should have been issued by the Ministry of Defense for this highest dismissal and a new appointment could not be issued, thus thwarting the Prime Minister’s House’s attempt at this ‘revolutionary’ change.

By the way, even if this process of removal was completed on the order of the Prime Minister, arrangements had been made to declare it null and void.

The locks of the Islamabad High Court were unlocked on Saturday night and the staff of Chief Justice Athar Minallah reached the High Court. It was informed that the High Court is scheduled to hear an urgent petition in which Adnan Iqbal Advocate as an ordinary citizen challenged in court the ‘possible’ notification of removal of the Chief of Army Staff by Prime Minister Imran Khan. What was?

The urgent petition said that Imran Khan had misused his powers for political and personal purposes and recommended the removal of the Chief of Army Staff; therefore the court should quash the order in the best public interest.

It is important to note here that this request was prepared but left blank in place of the notification number for the removal of the Chief of Army Staff. The reason for this was that despite the request of the Prime Minister, the notification could not be issued and thus it was not the turn of hearing on this petition.
