Pakistan puts Khyber Pakhtunkhwa under emergency rule

Pakistan's central government took over Khyber Pakhtunkhwa on Oct. 11, ending PTI's rule since 2013. President Zardari declared an emergency — meaning the province cannot govern itself under the constitution — on PM Sharif's advice. Governor Kundi now runs the executive, parliament takes the assembly's powers. Law Minister Tarar pointed to law and order and counterterrorism.
