PML-N President Shehbaz Sharif reacted string against the disillusionment of the National Assembly by PM Imran Khan and said  the premier had imposed a “civil martial law” in the country.

Addressing a joint press conference flanked by PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari, JUI-F leader Asad Mehmood, MQM-P convener Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui, BNP-M chief Akhtar Mengal, and others, Shehbaz Sharif said that PM Imran Khan and his aides violated the Constitution, reports The News International.

“In violation of the court’s orders, the prime minister and the president have taken extra-constitutional steps,” he added.

Referring to the dramatic turn of events in the lower house yesterday, plunging the country into a constitutional crisis, he said Fawad Chaudhry and the speaker read the written letters in the house.

Criticising the prime minister, Shahbaz Sharif told the newspaper, “Yesterday will be remembered as a black day in the history of Pakistan."

If something was against Article 5 of the Constitution then why the speaker approved the tabling of the no-confidence motion against PM Imran on March 24, he added.
