The Awami National Party (ANP) demanded on Tuesday to change Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s (KP) name to “Pakhtunkhwa” in the constitutional amendment.
According to details, the ANP’s consultative committee meeting was held in Peshawar. On this occasion, the country’s political situation was underscored. The central core committee came up with the key decisions following the meeting.
The ANP had made it clear that the party would oppose the extension of the tenure in the constitutional posts.
“The party will oppose any of the constitutional amendments that will be against personal independence,” said the ANP.
“We denounce the proposals of trial of the political workers under the military courts through the constitutional amendment,” said the party.
“However, the ANP supports the judicial reforms in the constitutional amendments. The reforms will be helpful to end the doctrine of necessity permanently,” said the ANP.
“We will endorse the constitutional amendment, which will be in line with the 1973 Constitution,” the party said.
ANP said: “The current political war is happening for the sake of ruling the country.”
The party was of the view that the real power belongs to the parliament, which the masses elect.
“We will continue our struggle for the sake of the supremacy of the parliament,” said the ANP.
During the meeting, the matters pertaining to the party’s organizational matters were also underscored.
