Govt. fractures as rifts run deep?

mr 13A large number of government ministers and MPs are of the opinion that it is unwise to approach a presidential election soon, in a backdrop where the popularity of the President has dropped.
Meanwhile, it is also said that certain MPs are also threatening to leave the government unless executive presidency is abolished and measures are taken to revert to a parliamentary system of government, dropping the idea of a hasty Presidential election.
According to internal sources of the government, around 40 persons within the government could rebel.
Also, internal rifts are said to be beyond reconciling and reaching a point where a fracture would be unavoidable.
