As stated by the assembly secretariat, today’s (Friday) National Assembly (NA) session has been postponed until 6 p.m.

The meeting, which Speaker Ayaz Sadiq was to lead at 11 a.m., has been postponed, according to the National Assembly Secretariat.

Under Rule 49, the National Assembly speaker’s time was modified, as announced by the secretariat.

An eight-point agenda itemised by the secretariat has also been made public. Nonetheless, the 26th constitutional amendment bill’s introduction is not on the agenda.

You might remember that since last month, the Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N)-led coalition government has been working to get the constitutional amendment approved.

In the absence of agreement on the 26th amendment to the Constitution, the administration was unable to secure the necessary two-thirds majority, leading to the National Assembly’s indefinite adjournment on September 16.
