Case will end selling of consciousness by becoming turncoats once and for all: Asad Umar
Minister says reference on Article 63(A) to be presented before SC tomorrow
Islamabad: Federal Minister for Planning, Development Asad Umar announced on Sunday the reference for the interpretation of Article 63(A) is ready and will be presented before the Supreme Court tomorrow (March 21).
In a tweet, the minister said: "Hopefully, with this case, the selling of consciousness by becoming turncoats will end once and for all." He also hoped that the case will lead to a reduction in buying of votes via illegitimate means.
آرٹیکل 63A کی تشریح کے لئے سپریم کورٹ ریفیرینس تیار ہو گیا. کل کورٹ میں پیش کیا جائے گا. انشاءاللہ اس کیس سے پاکستان کی سیاست میں ضمیر بیچ کر لوٹا بننے کا گھناؤنا کاروبار ہمیشہ کے لئے ختم ہو جائے گا، اور ہرام کے پیسے کی سیاست میں اثرو رسوخ میں کمی آئے گی

Earlier, the government had decided to approach the SC for interpretation of Article 63(A) as several PTI lawmakers announced to vote on the no-trust motion, in a violation of the party policy.
The decision was taken during a consultative meeting of the PTI’s political committee held with Prime Minister Imran Khan in the chair on Friday.
The meeting discussed the legal options available to act against the disgruntled lawmakers and counter the Opposition’s move to dislodge the government of Imran Khan.
A couple of days ago, 24 PTI MNAs had moved to the Sindh House out of fear that the government will take action against them similar to the March 10 raid by the police on the Parliament Lodges.
