KARACHI: Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah has called on the federal government to convene a meeting of the Council of Common Interests (CCI).
A statement issued from the CM House on Thursday said that Murad called for convening the CCI, saying: “Under Article 154(3) of the Constitution, it is mandatory to hold a CCI meeting every 90 days.” He said that it has been nine months, yet no meeting of the CCI has been convened. “According to the Constitution, three meetings of the CCI should have been held by now,” he added. “The federal government must fulfil its constitutional obligation by convening the CCI meeting,” demanded the CM.
