1/3. The validity of any law if is challenged on the ground other than being in contravention of fundamental rights, the SC cannot entertain such challenge in the proceedings under Article 184(3) even if the law is found in contravention of some provisions of the Constitution.
2/3. PLD 2009 SC 549, PLD 2019 SC 318, 2013 SCMR 1383, PLD 2005 SC 1 etc. Although grant of an anticipatory injunction 2 halt the process of legislation is innovation of #BandialiCourt, the order fails 2 address which of the fundamental rights (Ch1) are capable of being violated.
3/3. This 360' degree shift in contravention to the the text of the Cons and long-standing established principles by the SC on the subject is direct attack on the Parliament and #ConstitutionofPakistan #ParliamentUnderAttack #SupremeCourtOfPakistan #NationStandswithConstitution

Sir I find serious flaws in your arguments.
(1) The proposed law intends to curtail the powers of the CJ therefore his presence on the bench is bad for Nemo Judex in causa sua i.e No person can adjudicate a case in which they have an interest.
(2) CJP's whimsical use of powers to form benches comprising of likeminded judges is already under question and the very reason which led to passing of the bill
(3) The Petition is bad for maintainability and even otherwise on merits.

Parliament is not made up of just one political party. A judge is judged by his decisions, not his optics. Even his most ardent critics have failed to identify a single biased decision made by Qazi Faez Isa.
Parliament is the mother of Supreme Court, & the participation of Supreme Court Judges in commemorating the anniversary of the Constitution is the least one can expect from them. Salute #QaziFaezIsa
Today’s celebration was not a session of the @NAofPakistan pursuant to the "Rules of Procedure Conduct of Business in the National Assembly" nor was it the first of its kind in our history. It was merely a convention to celebrate the golden jubilee of the constitution.
