The meeting, presided over by Khurshid Shah of the People’s Party, would review versions of the proposed constitutional amendment that the political parties have submitted.
Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Senator Irfan Siddiqui had earlier declared, “Today is the day of big and positive news.” “Perhaps every draft will be combined into one,” Siddiqui stated.
“A consensus will emerge today based on what you say. A scribe asked Khurshid Shah if the three drafts were combined into one.
“For this business, today’s session has been scheduled. When I receive the manuscript, we’ll see,” Shah answered.
After spending several hours debating the proposed constitutional amendments related to judicial reforms at the Jati Umra in Lahore, the PML-N, PPP, and JUI-F reached a consensus yesterday.

“The three parties have reached a consensus regarding judicial reforms,” Ishaq Dar stated, adding that the legal system will deliver prompt justice following the changes.
According to Fazlur Rehman, there is agreement on judicial changes to a certain extent. “Agreements are being reached on other issues as well,” he continued.
Three separate versions of the proposed constitutional amendments, each put forth by three parties, were discussed during the meeting. Khursheed Shah of the PPP, who is in charge of the special committee on constitutional change in the parliament, also made the proposals.
