Gilani began an impeachment motion against which president?

  • Asif Zardari

  • Fazal Ilahi

  • Pervez Musharraf

  • Iskander Mirza

Answer

Pervez Musharraf, Pakistan's president from 2001 to 2008, faced an impeachment motion initiated by opposition leader Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain in 2008. The motion accused Musharraf of violating the constitution by dismissing the chief justice and imposing emergency rule. Despite pressure from the opposition, Musharraf survived the impeachment attempt and remained in power until he resigned later that year.
