ISLAMABAD: (HRNW) Attorney General resumed his arguments on Tuesday in the presidential reference seeking open ballot in upcoming Senate election before a larger Supreme Court bench headed by Chief Justice Gulzar Ahmed.
Attorney General Khalid Javed advancing his case before the Supreme Court, said that the upcoming Senate elections have less than one month remaining and soon the trading will begin.
“Why the opposition not agreeing over the open ballot vote,” Chief Justice Gulzar Ahmed questioned. “The opposition parties were agreed 10 years ago but now they are failing to fulfill their commitment,” the state counsel said.
“A Charter of Democracy was agreed between two former prime ministers. In 2010 the 18th Constitutional Amendment was passed but no clause added to the promised legislation for preventing horse trading in the senate election,” the attorney general further said.
