Musharraf to Take Oath As President Today

Chief Executive General Pervez Musharraf is expected to take oath as President of Pakistan on Wednesday at a ceremony to be held in the Darbar Hall of the President House in Islamabad.

Chief Justice of the Supreme Court Justice Irshad Hasan Khan will administer the oath of his new office to the chief executive. According to informed sources, the chief executive will become the President of Pakistan while keeping his office of the Chief of Army Staff.

This political change will follow the promulgation of an amendment to the Provisional Constitutional Order (PCO). It will enable Gen Musharraf to hold talks with the Indian Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee on the 14th of July as an equal in terms of civilian and constitutional authority.
