Constitutional Amendment | Law Minister Azam Tarar gives Answers to All Objections

The coalition government is unlikely to table the trumpeted constitutional amendment bill in the National Assembly even today (Monday) as it has postponed the federal cabinet meeting meant for the purpose.
The cabinet meeting has been postponed apparently due to government's failure to muster support for passage of the controversial bill.
Source said the government saw no reason in going ahead with the cabinet meeting as JUI-F chief Fazlur Rehman refused to support the bill. Therefore, Monday's National Assembly session is likely to have three-point agenda and there is no chance of tabling the constitutional bill.
Earlier, the government summoned the National Assembly and Senate sessions on Monday to table and pass the constitutional amendment after their failure to do so on Sunday.
The National Assembly and the Senate are expected to meet at 12:30pm as both the houses adjourned their sessions on Sunday.
The cabinet could not meet on Sunday and it's meeting has been postponed again.
On Sunday, a special committee constituted for setting up a new “constitutional court” to take up matters regarding interpretation of the constitution lent conditional support to the idea. The committee comprises representatives of government and opposition parties.
The special committee includes the legislators of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) and the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (JUI-F).
Speaking at the meeting, Maulana Fazlur Rahman refused to support the government on the issue of extension in tenure of high-ranking officials.
According to sources, Maulana Fazl suggested “detailed” debate on the bill.
The PTI also backed the JUI-F chief and said the legislation should not be enacted in haste.
