Addressing the lawyers of Sindh High Court at the ceremony, he said that we belong to lawyers for three generations, I belong to the party that gave the constitution to the country and we have been making the constitution for three generations, if today. Pakistan exists, is strong and is united because of the 1973 constitution.
He said that we have seen dictatorial times, we have also seen the constitution being destroyed, how our respected judges allow a dictator to do this and forget the constitution for ten years and all the authority is given to the dictator. Yes, after that we saw a more authoritarian era and the shameful thing was that the judges allowed the dictator to amend the constitution.
Bilawal said that even at that time, Benazir Shaheed used to appear before the judge and the judge used to teach her about the constitution. We were called corrupt that the constitution and law do not apply to us. So that this Nahti (Benazir) can be blackmailed.
Bilawal said that once the oath of PCO is taken, then it is said to be right and if the same oath is taken for the second time, democracy and the constitution will be threatened. We made the Charter of Democracy for the people.
He said that we will bring reforms in the court. Legislation and constitution making do not happen through the court. If you want immediate justice and want no differences between the provinces, then the establishment of a constitutional court is inevitable. In this federal court, there will be representatives of all the provinces and the chief justice will be appointed from each province in turn. Time is given that public cases do not come, so the constitution will create a court that will only hear constitutional cases.
He said that no judge has the courage to come to Sindh and announce that he will build the Kalabagh Dam, the 19th constitutional amendment came because of the threat of the court because the justices threatened to abolish the 18th amendment, the parliament. We were threatened to change your entire constitution, we were threatened with amendments to the constitution for not reviewing the appointment of judges, today the court has failed to fulfill its responsibility, our judicial system is broken, but we are reforming the judiciary. will restore the judiciary through
Bilawal said that the institutions for which they were created will do the same work, the constitutional court will see what are the problems of the constitution, we will create the constitutional court so that no other prime minister is hanged on the throne and the people Get justice.
He said that he respects both Justice Qazi Faiz Isa and Justice Mansoor Ali Shah, the consensus of the political parties regarding the age limit of the judge is necessary, perhaps this condition may become controversial, but as far as the establishment of the Constitutional Court is concerned, I should not apply the condition of age limit, the term should be fixed instead of the age of the judge of the Constitutional Court.
