Who wanted emergency and who did not?
A high-level meeting with President Pervez Musharraf in the chair on Tuesday night had decided to impose emergency in the country, but the president did not proclaim so, fearing a severe public reaction, reported Geo TV.

According to the channel, Pakistan Muslim League President Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain, Punjab Chief Minister Pervaiz Elahi and Sindh Chief Minister Arbab Ghulam Rahim pressed the president to impose emergency. Government's legal advisers Sharifudin Pirzada and Justice (r) Malik Qayyum seconded the proposal. "The Muttahida Qaumi Movement leaders, Balochistan Chief Minister Jam Muhammad Yousaf, PML Secretary General Syed Mushahid Hussain and the chief of an intelligence agency opposed the proposal to impose emergency," the channel quotes sources as saying.
