Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman commended all political parties, including the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), for their collaborative efforts in successfully passing crucial constitutional amendment.
Expressing his thoughts during the key National Assembly session in the wee hours of Monday, Rehman highlighted the discussions stemmed from the issues concerning the Supreme Court judges' aspirations for extended terms.
Fazl brought the matter to the legislative floor, advocating for a constitutional amendment aimed at ensuring harmonious operations between the legislature and judiciary.
He emphasised the significance of the Charter of Democracy, a document he signed to promote a unified political consensus, which called for a constitutional court but lamented the emergence of divisive forums that contradicted its principles.
“The constitution will remain steadfast, even amid shifting political landscapes,” Fazl asserted, underlining the enduring nature of constitutional commitments between the nation and its provinces. He characterized the Constitution as sacred, noting that amendments become increasingly challenging as its importance is upheld.
He condemned the mistreatment of any political leader and expressed regret for not having condemned such actions sooner.
