Emergency, PCO to go on Dec 16, says Perv
President Pervez Musharraf said on Thursday that the emergency rule and the Provisional Constitutional Order (PCO) would be lifted from the country on December 16, and the January 8 elections would be held at all costs under the constitution. He said this during a televised address to the nation, and at a ceremony after taking oath as civilian president to resume his second five-year term as head of the state. The situation has improved and I fully intend to lift the emergency rule and withdraw the PCO on December 16, he said in his first televised address after taking oath.Posted by: Fred 2007-11-30 |
