1997 Act,
00:02
you have changed it
00:04
and increased the number of judges.
00:06
First of all, tell us,
00:08
from this reference,
00:10
what motivation do you see behind this news?
00:12
And please tell us the details.
00:14
See, today there was a meeting of the National Assembly
00:16
and this was included in the agenda,
00:18
the amendment.
00:20
Barrister Danyal Chaudhry wanted to bring this amendment.
00:22
But today,
00:24
because the quorum was not complete
00:26
and the quorum was quite out,
00:28
but two weeks ago,
00:30
there was an amendment in the Election Act.
00:32
That too was brought by a private member,
00:34
Bilal Azhar Qaini.
00:36
Later, as soon as it was presented,
00:38
the government adopted it.
00:40
Because of which,
00:42
that amendment was approved.
00:44
Now, this amendment,
00:46
this too will be done by a simple majority.
00:48
And there is no doubt that this government
00:50
will do it easily.
00:52
And the fundamental purpose of this
00:54
is to increase the number of judges
00:56
in the Supreme Court.
00:58
At present, the strength of the Supreme Court
01:00
is 17 judges.
01:02
And the government wants
01:04
through its private member
01:06
to increase the number of judges
01:08
including the Chief Justice
01:10
and other judges.
01:12
So, there is a strong possibility
01:14
that next Tuesday,
01:16
this agenda will be brought again.
01:18
I have also spoken about this.
01:20
And it has been confirmed
01:22
that this bill will come next Tuesday.
01:24
And it will be sent to the committee.
01:26
But the government will pass this bill.
01:28
The government is completely behind this bill.
01:30
Another bill,
01:32
which you may ask later,
01:34
is brought by Noor Alam Khan.
01:36
It is an amendment bill.
01:38
And it is being said that
01:40
the government will support that bill too.
01:42
And that bill will be
01:44
the government's full effort.
01:46
It is related to India.
01:48
In fact, there are three bills.
01:50
We will come to that, Mr. Azhar.
01:52
But before that,
01:54
Senator Afnan has given
01:56
a very interesting statement
01:58
in our program.
02:00
After that, I feel that
02:02
an amendment can be made.
02:04
But Mr. Hasnath,
02:06
what will be the effect
02:08
of this on the Supreme Court?
02:10
And what will be the impact
02:12
on the cases that are already
02:14
going on and the cases
02:16
that will be brought
02:18
to the Supreme Court
02:20
After the decision of July 12,
02:22
you see that the majority
02:24
judges of the Supreme Court
02:26
are standing on one side.
02:28
The government, Justice Qazi Faisal
02:30
and the Supreme Court are standing
02:32
on one side.
02:34
So, if you look at the situation
02:36
in the Supreme Court,
02:38
if six judges are appointed,
02:40
then Chief Justice Qazi Faisal
02:42
will initiate the nomination.
02:44
And if you see,
02:46
the government has two members
02:48
Chief Justice Qazi Faisal
02:50
and Justice Aminuddin Khan.
02:52
I have seen in the past that
02:54
they have supported Justice Qazi Faisal
02:56
in every matter.
02:58
And the members of the Pakistan Bar Council
03:00
are also close to Mr. Azhar.
03:02
So, this is the majority
03:04
in the judicial commission.
03:06
So, the appointment of six judges
03:08
can be done.
03:10
Justice Qazi Faisal can have
03:12
more strength.
03:14
But generally,
03:16
it is a matter of three years.
03:18
Is this consultation with them?
03:20
This is such an important legislation.
03:22
Two months are left.
03:24
There is no notification.
03:26
No notification,
03:28
but at least in this regard,
03:30
have all judges been on board?
03:32
There are four or five future
03:34
Chief Justices in the Supreme Court.
03:36
So, have they been consulted?
03:38
Apart from Qazi Faisal,
03:40
how will this move be seen?
03:42
It seems that the strength is complete.
03:44
The Supreme Court should bring
03:46
new judges like Amir Farooq.
03:48
And then there is a majority
03:50
in the judicial commission
03:52
for the appointment of a new judge
03:54
in the Supreme Court.
03:56
Justice Mohsin Akhtar Qaini
03:58
can also be appointed as a Chief Justice.
04:00
Justice Mian Gul Hasan can also be appointed
04:02
as a Chief Justice.
04:04
Because the majority in the judicial commission
04:06
is either the government or Qazi Faisal.
04:08
Justice Mansoor Ali Shah,
04:10
Justice Yahya Faridi,
04:12
and Justice Malik Shehzad.
04:14
So, we have seen that
04:16
when the Chief Justice of the Lahore High Court
04:18
was elevated,
04:20
there were five or four.
04:22
So, there is a link-up between
04:24
judicial politics and national politics.
04:26
There is a division in the Supreme Court.
04:28
There is a perception that
04:30
some judges like the government
04:32
and some like the PTA.
04:34
There should not be such a perception.
04:36
Ideally speaking,
04:38
there should be such a perception.
04:40
Do you think that
04:42
the balance will be balanced?
04:44
Will there be such a situation
04:46
that no one will be able to say
04:48
that his balance is heavy here
04:50
and hers is heavy there?
04:52
Justice Mansoor,
04:54
there are only two months left
04:56
for a consultation with the government.
04:58
Is there a need for a consultation with them?
05:00
The government will say that
05:02
they have the power to legislate.
05:04
What is the need for a consultation?
05:06
It is true that the parliament
05:08
has no doubt about this.
05:10
But, you have talked about the balance.
05:12
So, all this seems to be
05:14
for the balance.
05:16
As of now,
05:18
the Chief Justice of the future
05:20
does not seem to have
05:22
a consultation with them
05:24
at any stage.
05:26
But, it is clear that
05:28
the government is not the only one.
05:30
I was listening to Mr. Rana Sanola
05:32
a while ago.
05:34
He was also saying that
05:36
there is no need for a consultation with the government.
