Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari Advocates for Pakistan’s First Constitutional Court

Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari, chairman of the Pakistan People's Party, is advocating for the establishment of the country's first-ever constitutional court. He believes this court would not only alleviate the burden on the apex court but also ensure speedy and equitable justice among provinces. Despite past setbacks due to a lack of support in Parliament, he remains committed to this judicial reform.

Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari, chairman of the Pakistan People's Party, on Tuesday championed the creation of Pakistan's first-ever constitutional court to address provincial disparities and reduce the heavy caseload of the apex court.

Speaking to a gathering of lawyers at the Sindh High Court, Bhutto-Zardari acknowledged that a constitutional amendment for such a court couldn't be presented in Parliament due to opposition resistance.

He asserted that establishing a Federal Constitutional Court (FCC) is essential for equitable governance, promising his party's continued efforts despite previous legislative hurdles.
