00:00 We are just going to take a short break.
00:02 Let me ask Mr. Bhandari and others and any other from the petitioner side.
00:05 I see Mr. Bhandari.
00:09 You are for the petitioner or the respondent?
00:11 Your Lordships have put various political...
00:13 No, no.
00:14 Who are you for?
00:15 I am for PTI.
00:16 Which side of the divide?
00:19 I am supporting the petitioners, but I am also not saying that Article 191 is completely
00:26 ousts the powers of the Parliament.
00:28 I would really like to hear you and anyone else from this side.
00:32 So if you could articulate, we will take a short break.
00:37 I have actually filed my written submissions.
00:39 Why are you depriving us of pleasure of hearing you?
00:43 Unless you want to deprive us, that's fine.
00:46 No, no, not at all, my Lord.
00:49 I am here.
00:50 And of course, we won't rush it.
00:53 You can answer whatever you want to.
00:56 We just come up.
00:57 I think the prayer time is also there.
00:59 Short break.
01:00 And if I may be granted leave, I have to...
01:03 As long as you leave somebody here who will know all the things and then if required,
01:07 submit the...
01:08 If you think, if you want to speak, we can't force you to submit a reply.
01:12 But it may be in your interest to do so.
01:14 Sir, Attorney General, best wishes from all of us on the assignment.
01:17 It's in the national interest and it's very important for Pakistan.
01:21 Our best wishes.
01:22 My Lord, you have asked me 22 questions.
01:29 You asked me...
01:30 We will come back.
01:31 No, in 22 questions, will you like me to answer now or you want me to give me some time to...
01:38 No, we will come back.
01:40 We will listen to you.
01:41 If there are any very good questions, we will see.
01:44 All the questions are good.
01:46 But see, a petitioner always comes prepared of all the questions.
01:49 So, see, the other side can say that, but you are the petitioner.
01:54 May I say something?
01:55 Yes.
01:56 See, Mr. Fajir, try to understand.
01:59 The functioning of the Supreme Court has ground us to end still.
02:03 I don't want that to continue.
02:05 Please allow me.
02:06 Okay.
02:07 I will answer these 22 questions and see you.
02:11 No, we will come back.
02:12 We will listen to Mr. Bhandari.
02:13 Maybe you will be satisfied.
02:14 Mr. Bhandari...
02:15 He is talking so well.
02:16 Mr. Bhandari has come to me.
02:19 You have given me so much.
02:22 We will come back and give you.
02:23 Let's see.
02:24 Let's hear a little more.
02:25 We will see.
02:26 We will see.
02:27 We will see what the parties say.
02:28 Do they want the Parliament's supremacy or not?
02:30 We have not heard the opportunity to hear yet.
02:32 Thank you.
02:33 Thank you.
02:34 You can go and leave someone here, competent.
02:36 Thank you.
02:37 Thank you.
02:38 Thank you.
02:39 and procedure case, the second file. During this time, Attorney General Mansoor Osman Awan has given evidence.
02:46 And he said that all the powers of the Supreme Court were at one place. This law wants to give the powers a
02:52 democratic form. This law translates the public representatives. The Attorney General said that we are talking
02:58 about administrative powers here. This law makes the court more democratic. The Attorney General also
03:04 gave reference to the rules and regulations of 1950, 1956, and 1960. He said that in 1950, the Federal
03:11 Court said that the court will use its power with the permission of the Governor General.
