PCB Constitution 2019

PCB’s present Constitution, implemented by former PCB chief Ehsan Mani, does not allow the prime minister to withdraw or remove the incumbent chairman of the board, after which a vote of no-confidence by three-fourth majority of the governing board is the only way to remove the PCB chief.

While it is unclear that incumbent PCB Chairman Ramiz Raja wants to quit the board’s top-most position, reports of the premier considering a new chief are rife for the last few days.

After Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan assumed the PM office in 2018, ex-PCB chief Najam Sethi resigned and Mani took charge after his departure. After compelition of his three-year term, he refused an extension last year after which Ramiz Raja took control of the board.

If Raja refuses to step down with no possibility of a no-confidence motion, the present Constitution has no provision for such a situation.

However, clause 47 allows the ruling government to amend the Constitution to expedite the appointment of a new chairman.
