The Pakistani federal cabinet is scheduled to convene on Sunday to deliberate on potential constitutional interventions in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, including the possibility of declaring an emergency or implementing governor's rule. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif will lead the meeting to address the escalating political and security instability linked to the ongoing protest march organized by the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party. Following recent consultations between the Prime Minister and President Asif Ali Zardari, the government is evaluating these measures to stabilize the province. Officials indicated that the cabinet may formalize recommendations for the President's approval. Furthermore, the administration is contemplating significant personnel adjustments, such as the appointment of a new chief secretary, as part of its strategy to manage the provincial crisis. The situation remains fluid as the federal leadership assesses its options to restore order in the region.
