uction Much has been written on the national history of Pakistan, but the regional history is overlooked and this paper attempts to explore the provincial history of the Punjab. This study deals with the formation and the working of the Cabinet System in the province of the Punjab under the chief minister ship of Mian Shahbaz Sharif in 2008-2012). On 8 June 2008, Shahbaz Sharif became Chief Minister of Punjab and remained in office till the new general elections in 2013. The history of the cabinet system during the period under study was divided into two phases. First period is a period of a coalition government when Shahbaz Sharif formed the government with the help of Pakistan people’s Party at the Centre and also in the province, which remained in office from on 8 June 2008 to 25 February 2011. The second period he headed the single party cabinet on 25 February 2011 to 2013. The institution of the Cabinet plays very important role in parliamentary form of Government. During the period under study, it proved as instrumental in bringing remarkable reforms in the province, which enabled the Muslim League party to win an election not only in the province of the Punjab but also at the National level. The word good governance was used to describe the working of the province of the Punjab when the governments in other provinces failed to deliver as successfully as the government of the Punjab. The history of the formation and working of the institution of the Cabinet in the Punjab during 2008-2013 becomes an interesting case study. Therefore it is important to understand how the institution of the Cabinet worked and how and why it proved its worth in the province of the Punjab and what was the role of the Chief Minister in making it a cohesive body and what was its relationship with the provincial legislature, judiciary, executive and other important organs of the province and the state. Studies already have been made to analyze the institution of Cabinet in Pakistan but historians have not touched the regional history of the institution of the Cabinet and therefore this study will focus the regional history
