Pakistan's Punjab province Chief Minister Chaudhry Parvez Elahi on Thursday signed the summary of dissolution of the provincial assembly and sent it to the governor for acceptance.
Elahi, a joint candidate of ousted premier Imran Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party and the PML-Q, signed the dissolution of the Punjab Assembly summary hours after he managed to obtain a vote of confidence.
"I, Parvez Elahi, chief minister of Punjab, hereby advise you to dissolve the provincial assembly," Elahi said in a brief one-line advice addressed to the governor.
