Saturday, August 09, 2008
The ruling coalition has decided to call the National Assembly meeting to initiate the impeachment process against Musharraf next week. The National Assembly speaker will hold a debate in the joint sitting of the two houses of parliament on impeachment resolution. According to Article 47 of the Constitution, two-thirds members of the total number of both houses must declare that president is unfit to hold his office due to incapacity, or he is guilty of violating the Constitution or he is involved in gross misconduct. Musharraf will face the first ever impeachment motion in the history of Pakistan.
