Abid Zuberi, Shafqat Mehmood, Shahab Sarki and other challenged the amendments


Islamabad: The proposed constitutional amendments have been challenged in Supreme Court on Monday.
The petition has submitted by senior lawyers Abid Zuberi, Shafqat Mehmood, Shahab Sarki, Ishtiaq Ahmed Khan, Munir Kakar, and others, in which federal government, all four provinces, the National Assembly, the Senate, and others have been named as respondents.
Petitioners request that the proposed constitutional amendment be declared unconstitutional.
It argues that the amendment undermines the separation of powers and judicial independence, and seeks to stop the federal government from proceeding with it.
The petition further calls for the amendment to be annulled and for judicial independence and powers to be upheld as sacred.
Moreover, it requests that if the parliament passes the amendment, the president be restrained from signing it.
