ISLAMABAD:Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leadership has decided to continue consultations with Moulana Fazlur Rehman for consensus on constitutional amendment
PPP leaders including Naveed Qamar, Nayyar Bukhari and others held meeting with JUI-F President Fazl.
Bukhari disclosed that PPP leadership was also in contact with other opposition parties and making efforts to present a common agenda on constitutional amendment.
The PPP leader stressed for national reconciliation on a broad perspective by dialogue with the opposition.
Naveed Qamar also clarified that they were not part of the government but supporters of PML-N led incumbent government.
He announced that the government would present the draft and consultations were going on for the national agenda.
PPP leader and provincial minister Nasir Hussain Shah emphasised that the proposed law was not being formulated for a specific individual.
He dismissed the narrative that the proposed constitutional court was being set up to appease a judge.
Shah stated that Bilawal Bhutto’s stance on constitutional amendment was quite clear and the country needed a constitutional court.
He insisted that constitutional courts were being established across the world but Pakistan was deprived of it.
COMMON MAN DOESN’T GET JUSTICE DUE TO BACKLOG OF CASES
Nasir Hussain Shah provided reasons for the need for a constitutional court, saying, “a common man’s cases go pending due to a backlog of political cases as political cases get preference for proceeding.”
Thousands of cases are pending in the courts and a common man has to wait for a long time to get justice.”
The PPP leader also highlighted that the party couldn’t get complete justice in Bhutto cases after forty years.
He berated SC reserved seats verdict as PTI was given reserved seats instead of SIC which sought relief.
Shah asserted that Maulana Fazlur Rehman was quite honourable for them and he would surely support the government for reforms in constitutional institutions.
