ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan is chairing a special meeting of the federal cabinet, media reported.
According to sources, the federal cabinet will make important decisions on the no-confidence motion.
Defence Minister Pervez Khattak, Human Rights Minister Shireen Mazari, Education Minister Shafqat Mehmood, and others are attending the meeting, sources said.
The cabinet will likely approve filing a reference against Chief Election Commissioner Sikandar Sultan Raja and seek to extend the NA session under Article 254.
“When any act or thing is required by the Constitution to be done within a particular period and it is not done within that period, the doing of the act or thing shall not be invalid or otherwise ineffective by reason only that it was not done within that period,” reads Article 254.
It is worth mentioning that the meeting is being held at a time when the crucial National Assembly for the voting on no-confidence motion is underway since 10:30am — and has been delayed with four breaks.
