Completely different situation.
Sri Lanka defaulted, they didn't have anything, so the government imposes emergency so that they can focus on the important things.
In Pakistan, the situation is completely different. We are in no such situation for now.
Academically you are right, emergency and martial law are different things, in Pakistan, during Musharraf and now, they are practically the same.
We are also in a dire economic situation.
There are legal Emergency provisions built into our constitution including for Financial Emergencies.
not applicable otherwise trend will set and every other govt will use this
Government has to pass the Emergency resolution.
