Parvez Elahi takes oath as Punjab Chief Minister

Chaudhry Parvez Elahi has taken oath as Chief Minister of Punjab following Supreme Court’s verdict.

President Dr Arif Alvi administered the oath to him during a simple but graceful ceremony held at the Aiwan-e-Sadr late last night.

Earlier, a three-member bench comprising Chief Justice of Pakistan Umar Ata Bandial, Justices Ijazul Ahsan and Munib Akhtar set aside Deputy Speaker Dost Muhammad Mazari’s ruling on Punjab chief minister’s election.
