Commenting on the Pakistan Peoples Party’s (PPP) support for the constitutional package, the party’s Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari on Tuesday said that so far, his party had agreed to the government’s proposal for the formation of a federal constitutional court.
Addressing the Balochistan High Court (BHC) Bar in Quetta, Bilawal said his party had no problem if anyone of the top two judges of the country chaired the constitutional court.
“After the struggle of 30 years, we have decided to form a constitutional court,” he said, adding his struggle for the constitutional amendment was not for the current chief justice, Qazi Faez Isa. “Your agenda could be a person-specific, not mine,” he added.
Expressing a profound respect for Justice Mansoor Ali Shah, he asked if he would accept the constitutional court, if the constitution said so.
