Islamabad, January 31, 2022 (PPI-OT):Minister for Information and Broadcasting Chaudhary Fawad Hussain has urged the political parties to put their differences behind and unite for a constitutional amendment regarding appointment of new judges in Supreme Court.

In his tweets on Monday, he pointed out that five judges of the apex court are retiring this year and it will be a big achievement if the parliament through a constitutional amendment makes appointments in Supreme Court transparent and independent.

The Information Minister commended the historic stance taken by outgoing Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Gulzar Ahmad regarding the worship places of minorities, saying this has increased his prestige. Fawad Chaudhary said the Indian judiciary appears helpless at the hands of extremists. However our judges such as Justice Gulzar Ahmad supported the minorities and independently announced judgments.
