Meeting between Negeri Sembilan MB, former excos and Tunku Nadzaruddin cancelled

A meeting between Negeri Sembilan's menteri besar Ismail Lasim, former executive council members, and Tunku Nadzaruddin Tuanku Ja’afar was called off due to security concerns. The session, originally scheduled for 9am, aimed to foster rapport among the group, which included Tunku Besar of Tampin and Shahbandar of Sungai Ujong. The cancellation unfolded amidst a constitutional crisis in the state, triggered by the Attorney-General's Chambers rejecting a proclamation that sought to remove Yang Dipertuan Besar, Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir, as state ruler.

The AGC deemed the proclamation invalid and emphasized that the menteri besar and exco members lacked unilateral authority to carry out such an action. Subsequently, Tuanku Muhriz revoked the appointments of ten executive council members, alleging breaches of their oaths of office. Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim subsequently met with Tuanku Muhriz on September 21st.
