The proposed constitutional amendments led by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s cabinet have been made public, and several important aspects have emerged, including modifications to judicial procedures and structural improvements.
The suggestion to prolong the tenure of the Chief Justice of Pakistan, which was expected, is a noteworthy omission.
According to those with knowledge of the situation, the planned changes will touch on a number of important topics. Among these, the creation of a constitutional court and a set process for judge dismissal are emphasized.
