Another petition related to voter pressure was filed in the Supreme Court on the issue of 26th Constitutional Amendment.
A petition against the 26th constitutional amendment has been filed in the Supreme Court by Afrasiab Khattak, a senior leader of the National Democratic Movement, in which all political parties including Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz and People’s Party have been made parties.
The petition requested the Supreme Court to constitute a full court to hear the petition against the 26th constitutional amendment and to inquire whether the members of the assembly voted voluntarily or under pressure in the 26th constitutional amendment.
The petition has requested that the Supreme Court conduct an inquiry into the matter itself or conduct an inquiry into the matter of pressure on the members through a judicial commission and declare that the 26th constitutional amendment was not properly passed.
26 constitutional amendments challenged in Supreme Court and Sindh High Court, ‘Amendment is a direct attack on the independence of judiciary’
It has also been requested in the petition that the election disputes of the members of the assembly are pending in the election tribunal, the 26th constitutional amendment should be dismissed as against the independence of the judiciary.
The petition has adopted the position that the independence of the judiciary is the basic structure of the constitution, the annual performance review of judges, the change in the method of appointment of the Chief Justice and the establishment of constitutional benches are against the independence of the judiciary, the petition against the 26th constitutional amendment. But constitutional benches cannot hear.
