As 160 million Pakistanis held their breath in the hope for the politicians to restore the deposed judiciary, the thirty-day deadline came and was gone without even a whimper. Another deadline is promised for May 12. Following the announcement of May 12 deadline, almost immediately, PPP leaders went into a frenzy casting serious doubts on honouring the deadline.
They plead, drafting a resolution to restore the deposed judiciary is an extremely complicated task, that requires formations of several committees of constitutional experts, which makes it impossible to set a definite date.
Considering the fact, these crises are holding virtually whole nation from returning back to the nation building. For example, start with passing a restoration of judiciary package, then move on forming individual packages for the future of a working judiciary and drafting a constitutional package.
I suggest repeal of the Provisional Constitution Order No l of 2007 and repeal of all of the amendments and all orders thereafter. The Chief Justice of Pakistan and Judges of the Supreme Court, the Chief Justice and the Judges of The Federal Shariat Court and Chief Justice and the Judges of the High Courts holding office on the 3rd day of November, 2007 shall take oath under the revived Constitution.
EFFECT OF REVOCATION PROVISIONAL CONSTITUTION ORDER NO.L OF 2007:
(1) Notwithstanding anything contained in the Constitution or any other law for the time being in force, the revocation of the Proclamation of Provisional Constitution Order No l of 3rd day of November 2007 shall invalidate, nullify or render ineffective any order passed or action taken under the Proclamation of Provisional Constitution Order No l, and the Oath of Office (Judges) Order 2007 as upheld by the Supreme Court of Pakistan in CP No 87 and 88 of 2007 dated 23-11-2007.
If any difficulty arises in giving effect to any of the provisions of this Order, the Parliament may make such provisions and pass such orders as it may deem fit. The validity of any provision made or orders passed under clause (1) and (2), can be called in question by the Supreme Court, Federal Shariat Court, High Court, any forum or authority, on any ground whatsoever.
