CHINIOT: Prime Minister’s Adviser on Political and Public Affairs Rana Sanaullah on Monday said that the 28th Constitutional Amendment would be introduced soon, expressing confidence that it would also be passed by the parliament, reports Geo News.
On resignations tendered by two Supreme Court judges and one Lahore High Court judge, Sanaullah said it does not befit any judge to involve themselves in political protests. “Those who stepped down did so due to their personal motives,” he added.
Speaking to reporters here, Sanaullah said the proposed amendment would relate to local bodies, the National Finance Commission (NFC) and health matters, noting that discussions on these subjects were already underway.
He added that if consensus is achieved, the government can move forward with formally presenting the 28th Amendment in parliament. Sanaullah also referred to the resignations, tendered by two Supreme Court judges and one Lahore High Court judge, saying that the parliament has the constitutional right to pass amendments, while judges have taken an oath to uphold and protect those decisions. The prime minister’s adviser said it does not befit any judge to involve themselves in political protests. “Those who stepped down did so due to their personal motives,” he added.
