Govt Constitution Amendment kay Zariye Jo Chah Rahi wo Sab Nahi Howa..." Fawad Chaudhry's Statement

Transcript

00:00PMLN and People's Party, they are going to make a very important constitutional amendment today.

00:08Bilawal Bhutto, you just heard his speech. He said that there is no tension, we have to settle this matter.

00:15The number has been reached. Faisal Wada is saying that the number has been reached. Do you believe in that?

00:20No, now the consensus has been reached.

00:23So, the meaning of consensus development is that the number will also be reached, because PTI…

00:27No, I think that the main objections of PTI have been removed.

00:32Now, one or two things are left, I think that will also be finished.

00:37You see, there were two fundamental objections.

00:40What they wanted, that could not be done.

00:42What the government wanted was that they wanted to make military courts, that could not be done.

00:47Constitutional courts.

00:48Then, they wanted to make federal constitutional courts.

00:50And they wanted to give it to Faiz Issa Sahib, that also could not be done.

00:54So, these two fundamental things that they wanted, that could not be done.

00:57Behind this, there are compromises.

01:00I must say, I also give credit to Bilawal Bhutto that he took so much stance on federal constitutional courts,

01:06but in the end, he listened to Maulana Fazlur Rehman and moved back.

01:10And now, the constitution has come to the bench.

01:12By the way, this is also a useless thing.

01:14Sir, do you think that the constitutional amendment that had come, now it has become toothless?

01:18Now, it is Khaanapuri?

01:19Now, it has become toothless to a great extent.

01:21Then, it is Khaanapuri?

01:22Now, it is almost Khaanapuri.

01:24It is Khaanapuri.

01:25For example, if it is Khaanapuri, still, today, this constitutional amendment could not be passed.

01:30What is this? Why?

01:31Today, the developments, for example, the PTI meeting was at 9 o'clock.

01:37They had to discuss the entire schedule.

01:40And after that, they have to go to Maulana again.

01:42I think, they have to go again at 10 or 10.30.

01:45And they have to talk about the amendments that they have.

01:48Then, obviously, Pakistan cannot function without Imran Khan's nod.

01:51So, they have to go to Imran Khan in the morning.

01:53They have to ask him.

01:54After that, the decision of PTI will be made.

01:56So, if…

01:57Look, the trump card is JUI.

01:59But, PTI has to refrain from voting already.

02:03But, JUI will go to the main voting.

02:06Without JUI…

02:08Sir, you are saying that until and unless PTI does not give permission, JUI will not vote.

02:13JUI has said this.

02:14Permission?

02:15As long as Imran Khan…

02:16You are using the permission.

02:18They have said that until their consultation is not done,

02:21until the entire opposition is not together, we will not vote.

02:23So, you think that the constitutional amendment has been passed.

02:27For example, if it is passed, it will be passed tomorrow.

02:30Because, Faisal Wada is also saying that it will be passed now.

02:32To make such a big effort…

02:34What they wanted, that did not happen.

02:36What Faisal Wada wanted?

02:37What the government wanted.

02:39To make such a big effort, more than a month…

02:41There is an effort in front.

02:43How much effort is behind that, that is another story.

02:45No, the effort that has been made in the last 5-7 days,

02:47by picking up people,

02:49even Shah Mehmood's daughter-in-law,

02:51what is left now?

02:52That was something that should not have happened.

02:55But, tell me this,

02:56after so much effort, if this had to happen,

02:59then didn't that entire effort become futile?

03:03Now, is this face-saving?

03:05Now, it is face-saving.

03:06Now, nothing like this is left.

03:08Yes, no.

03:09Judiciary has become weak.

03:10Judiciary will become weak from this amendment as well.

03:13But, the problem will be that…

03:15For example, look at this,

03:17that Chief Justice has become a figurehead, primarily.

03:22The position of Chief Justice of Pakistan,

03:24which was of great power earlier,

03:25now it is not of that importance.

03:27Now, they are saying that a Constitution bench will be formed,

03:30within the Supreme Court.

03:32And, the Constitution of that bench,

03:34will be done by the Judicial Committee,

03:36which is a special committee,

03:37which has 13 members.

03:39But, right now, 8 members are of the government.

03:42That means, 8 members of the government

03:44will appoint the Constitutional Court.

03:47So, being of that bench,

03:49the importance of Chief Justice,

03:51becomes very less.

03:53So, now, it doesn't make a difference,

03:56who is the next Chief Justice.

03:58Yes, it doesn't make that much of a difference.

03:59Even if it goes to the unpopular person of the government,

04:02it doesn't make a difference.

04:03It doesn't make a difference.

04:04There is no power.

04:05Then, till 25th,

04:07can you see the government waiting?

04:09Or, before that,

04:11I don't know why they are in a hurry.

04:13Actually, the Constitution should come into effect on 26th.

04:17So that, Mansoor Ali Shah's appointment is done,

04:20and then, the next Chief Justice can start.

04:21The Constitutional amendments that you can see now,

04:24will it make a difference,

04:25who is the next Chief Justice?

04:27Who will be the next Chief Justice?

04:29The one that will happen now.

04:30The government is going before 25th.

04:32See, like I said,

04:34Mansoor Ali Shah, Muneeb Akhtar,

04:37and Yahya Afridi,

04:38why was the government doing this?

04:41First, understand this.

04:42The government was doing this,

04:44so that there is no surprise in the decisions.

04:47First, we should know what the decision is.

04:49All the exercises were being done for this.

04:51Now, the problem is,

04:53if they had made a Federal Constitutional Court

04:56on their favorite judges,

04:58then this vulnerability would have been reduced.

05:01But now, these 17 judges of the Supreme Court,

05:05this vulnerability will remain with them.

05:08There may be one or two judges among them,

05:10who can give services to the government to that extent,

05:14as much as they want.

05:15For the rest of the judges, it is very difficult

05:17to cooperate with the government in this Supreme Court.

05:21First, send your decision,

05:22that sir, we have started giving this decision,

05:24you give the order.

05:25Or, like the trust they had on Mr. Faiz Yusuf,

05:28there is no judge like that now.

05:30This will not happen for some time.
