This refers to the article, '26th Amendment: the good, bad, and ugly' (Oct 25) by Jahanzeb Sukhera. The writer has objectively discussed the merits and drawbacks of the contested legislative amendment. It remains to be seen whether these amendments might create a conflict of interest among the top three judges or allow political parties to influence bar councils to secure votes on the Judicial Commission of Pakistan (JCP).
Instead of protests against this amendment, PTI leaders should pursue the legal route with vigour. Political stability – and the improved economy that comes with it – is more crucial than any single amendment.
