The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly took action against Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz on Friday, passing a majority resolution seeking Article 6 action against her following her remarks regarding security threats and terrorism. Law Minister Aftab Alam Afridi initiated the resolution, claiming the statements could harm national unity and spread provincial animosity.
Housing Minister Amjad Ali accused Maryam Nawaz of insulting the province, stating her remarks undermined the state's narrative on terrorism. Information Minister Shafi Jan alleged the Punjab chief minister had given a clean bill of health to India, questioning the narrative built by the Pakistan military over the past years. The assembly questioned the adherence of the judiciary, election commission, and armed forces to their respective oaths, reflecting widespread dissatisfaction with the government's handling of the situation.
