CJ confrontational on 18th Amendment?

Well the political parties are right. Even though the Supreme Court has the final say on all Amendments of the Constitution, nothing in the 18th Amendment violates the letter and spirit of the constitution. Rather it enhances and strengthens the different aspects of democracy.

Again, you’re wrong. The Constitution explicitly bars courts from striking down the constitutional amendments.

Article 239 subsection 5 & 6:

(5) No amendment of the Constitution shall be called in question in any court on any ground whatsoever.
(6) For the removal of doubt, it is hereby declared that there is no limitation whatever on the power of the Majlis-e-Shoora (Parliament) to amend any of the provisions of the Constitution

Part XI: "Amendment of Constitution"
