In a bid to push through constitutional amendments related to judicial reforms, Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto has once again engaged with Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-JUI-F (JUI-F) Maulana Fazlur Rehman.
The PPP delegation, led by Bhutto, included notable figures including Syed Khurshid Shah, Naveed Qamar, and Murtaza Wahab.
On the other hand, JUI-F's top brass Maulana Abdul Ghafoor Haidari, Maulana Abdul Wasay, Asad Mehmood, Kamran Murtaza, Usman Badini, and Maulana Misbahuddin were also present during the huddle.
According to Syed Khurshid Shah - a spokesperson for JUI - the meeting was part of an ongoing dialogue to align various political stakeholders on the proposed amendments.
Khurshid Shah stated, "We have taken Maulana Fazlur Rehman into confidence and discussed the previously contentious issues. We have removed provisions that faced objections."
The seasoned politician stressed that the right to legislate for the country's supremacy and the parliament’s authority cannot be obstructed. He assured that the PPP and its allies are committed to advancing the bill through parliament after consulting with all political parties.
Earlier, Bilawal Bhutto had engaged in crucial discussions with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif regarding securing support for the amendments.
In the meantime, the government has postponed the National Assembly and Senate sessions indefinitely, delaying the consideration of the constitutional amendments.
