ISLAMABAD, OCT 14 /DNA/ – Vice President of the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Senator Sherry Rehman, and Dr. Asim Hussain met with the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) delegation at Sindh House.
The MQM delegation included Governor Sindh Kamran Tessori, Dr. Farooq Sattar, and Amin ul Haque.
During the meeting, both parties reached a consensus on moving forward with constitutional amendments in a transparent and collaborative manner. The discussions focused on maintaining ongoing communication and fostering cooperation between the two parties.
Senator Sherry Rehman highlighted that, on the instructions of Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, PPP is actively engaging all stakeholders in the process of constitutional reforms. “Today, we briefed MQM leadership about the establishment of constitutional courts,” she stated.
The meeting is part of a broader consultation process in alignment with Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari’s vision for a dedicated constitutional court to handle constitutional matters efficiently and ensure equal representation for all provinces at federal level.
This reform is a critical part of the unfinished agenda of 2006 Charter of Democracy. It will ensure that no government can manipulate the judiciary for political gains, as envisioned by Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto to uphold democratic principles.
In the meeting, both delegations exchanged views on their respective priorities, highlighting the importance of continuing constructive dialogue. Senator Rehman emphasized the significance of the longstanding relationship between PPP and MQM, adding, “Our discussions today were fruitful, and we are committed to maintaining this engagement moving forward.”
At a short press briefing later, MQM leader Farooq Sattar reiterated that politics is the way to keep engaged with all relevant stakeholders, while Sherry Rehman said that political people know how to break deadlocks. Both agreed to move forward in the parliament with a core minimum agenda.
