Wow…what a move…

I thought the time span was 60 days (within) to to get it ratified by the lower and the upper houses…and needed a 2/3 majority? Otherwise it will become automatically void…

What if the President doesn’t put it infront of the assembly…

PS: I guess…MQM, PPP, PML(N) and other would-be beneficiary parties would vote in favor…

If the President does not put it before the National Assembly within four months it will automatically expire.

If it get’s approved by the National Assembly, then it will go to the Senate for approval. But PPP-P only has 9% of the seats there, so it will need PMLQ, MQM and other parties support to get it approved.

Long live parliamentary democracy. :jhanda:
