Parliamentary leaders have agreed to finalize and approve the 27th Constitutional Amendment in a key session scheduled for next week. The move follows weeks of consultations between coalition partners and opposition members aimed at ensuring broad political consensus on the proposed changes.
According to government sources, the amendment focuses on strengthening parliamentary oversight, enhancing transparency in judicial appointments, and streamlining governance processes to improve institutional coordination. Senior officials said the draft was reviewed by a special parliamentary committee, which incorporated recommendations from all major political parties.
Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Ishaq Dar confirmed that the government wants to pass the amendment through dialogue and consensus rather than confrontation. He emphasized that the constitutional change is meant to improve the democratic framework and ensure accountability while respecting the independence of all state institutions.
Opposition parties have expressed cautious optimism, urging the government to maintain transparency and avoid provisions that could weaken checks and balances. Legal experts believe the 27th amendment could mark a significant shift in Pakistan’s governance model if implemented effectively.
The proposed legislation will be presented in the joint parliamentary session next week for approval. Once passed, it will represent one of the most notable constitutional developments in recent years, signaling renewed efforts to reform Pakistan’s political and judicial systems through consensus-based policymaking.
