Governor rule in Pakistan from 1949, province by province
The first governor rule in Pakistan was imposed in West Punjab on 25 January 1949 and lasted until April 1951, after Liaquat Ali Khan dismissed Nawab Mamdot.
Governor rule in Pakistan moves legislative and executive powers between the federation and a province, Geo says.
The first case Geo records was in West Punjab, from 25 January 1949 until April 1951.
Premier Liaquat Ali Khan dismissed Chief Minister Nawab Mamdot, rejecting his claim of a majority among assembly members.
Geo says every province has been under an emergency or this form of rule at least once, alone or under countrywide orders.
A PTI post alleged a new provincial emergency and a jailed former prime minister, without naming either; the chronologies do not confirm it.
