<<SC verdict is first step towards PML-N’s victory: Hamza Shahbaz>>
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Tuesday while reacting to the Supreme Court of Pakistan’s verdict to strike down Deputy Speaker Dost Muhammad Mazari’s ruling on the Punjab chief minister’s election by declaring ‘illegal’ said that the apex court hurt people’s expectations for justice.
Taking to Twitter, Shehbaz penned that the constitution has assigned state powers to parliament, administration and judiciary but it has also mandated all the institutions to work within the specified limits.
“No institution can interfere in the authority of another and there will be no compromise on the supremacy of the Constitution and Parliament,” he wrote.
The requirement of the reputation of the judiciary and the quality of justice was that a full court should be formed so that justice would not only be done but also be seen to be done, but the judicial decision would fulfil the expectations of the legal community, citizens, media and the people for justice,” PM added.
Meanwhile Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader and former Punjab Chief Minister Hamza Shahbaz on Tuesday shared his views after Supreme Court overturned ruling of the Deputy Speaker, saying this is not a defeat but it is his party’s first step towards victory.
Hamza took to Twitter and wrote that principle of neutrality has been killed by rejecting the coalition government’s request of forming the full court.
Hamza Shahbaz expressed sorrow over the SC s decision, saying that the government that was elected by the votes of the people had been overthrown by a “controversial decision.
He said that over the past four months, the largest province of the nation has turned into a “laughing stock”.
Hamza also posed the question and said “Has the status of the assembly become a rubber stamp”?
Hamza continued by saying that when the top court denied the PML-N’s request for a full bench, justice was slain.
”My politics is for the people and not for positions,” he declared.
He also added that “illegal” attempts to prevent him from leading the province have been made ever since he took the oath of office.
