Chaudhary Parvez Elahi has served as Chief Minister of Punjab (Pakistan) twice, and for a total of 5 years, and 168 days.[1] He served under the political party, the Pakistan Muslim League (Q). His longest and most influential tenure was from 2002-2007 after the 2002 Punjab provincial election, in which he initiated several projects and was heavily supported by military general and President, Pervez Musharraf.[2][3] His second tenure was from 2022-2023 amid the 2022 Constitutional Crisis in Punjab, as well as amid major political unrest in Pakistan.[4] He is widely known as one of the most influential Chief Ministers of Punjab, having brought significant and successful reforms to the province.[5][6][7]
As Chief Minister of Punjab, Parvez initiated several initiatives to develop the province, including the Multan Institute of Cardiology, which Elahi founded and worked to establish. Some of his most successful projects include the Rescue 1122 helpline system, the University of Gujrat, the Lahore Ring Road and several other irrigation and social projects that were founded in his tenure. He has received appraisal for his work as Chief Minister.[5] He was and has been politically opposed to long time serving Chief Minister Shehbaz Sharif.[8]
Election
[edit]In the 2002 Punjab provincial election, Chaudhry Parvez Elahi led the newly formed Pakistan Muslim League (Q) party, which was founded with the backing of military president Pervez Musharraf. The PML (Q) would campaign on a social developmental platform under Parvez Elahi and his Chaudhry family.
The elections would result in a large victory for the PML (Q), though many alleged it was because of the party’s backing by Musharraf. The elections in Punjab and nationwide resulted in victory for the PML (Q) though it was forced to join a coalition with the PPPP and National Alliance. In total, Parvez Elahi and the PML (Q) won 210 seats in Punjab out of which 168 were directly elected non-reserved seats.
First Tenure (2002-2007)
[edit]Parvez Elahi was sworn in as Chief Minister of Punjab on 29 November, 2002 while most of the ministers in his provincial cabinet were sworn in January 2003. His first tenure oversaw a period of relative political stability with him holding the Military-backed President, Governor and prime minister’s support. Due to this, he was able to serve a full tenure, and was able to initiate many programs and initiatives, though the national PML (Q) government saw 3 different prime ministers. His provincial cabinet was comprised of many new politicians from the PML (Q) while his governor would be Khalid Maqbool, appointed by Pervez Musharraf.
