Nawaz told the interior minister that those who took the responsibility [of handling the matter] shouldn't have given leeway [to the rival political parties], Geo News quoted sources, close to Nawaz, as saying.
The report further said that the party's leader called Sanaullah thrice prior to and after the voting on the crucial matter.
Sanaullah, it added, responded that the party was adamant at letting the assembly dissolve, saying they changed the stance after assurance by the members of the parliamentary committee.
A day earlier (Jan 12), PTI's Fawad Chaudhry said that Chief Minister Parvez Elahi had signed the summary to dissolve Punjab Assembly.
He had also said that [governor's] failure to sign the summary would result in an automatic dissolution of the provincial assembly.
Parvez Elahi won the vote of confidence of the Punjab Assembly to retain his post as the province’s chief minister, on Wednesday night.
The vote was taken amid a boycott of the session by the opposition and a ruckus in the House, as both sides engaged in an intense war of words.
The opposition had cast doubts on the transparency of the voting process and announced to approach court against the same.
Both PML-Q, allied with PTI, and arch-rivals PML-N earlier claimed to have the required numbers to win the crucial vote of trust.
On the same day, a five-member bench of the Lahore High Court headed by Justice Abid Aziz Sheikh had urged the chief minister to take a vote of trust to bring the prevailing crisis in the province to an end.
Last month, the Lahore High Court reinstated Parvez Elahi, as the chief minister, and his Cabinet after the assurance by the latter that he won’t advise the dissolution of the assembly without securing the vote of confidence first.
The order was passed after the PML-Q leader gave the guarantee to the court, bringing days of intense wrangling to an end.
