In a major breakthrough, the special parliamentary committee — comprising government and opposition members — has unanimously approved the draft for 26th constitutional amendment.
The development comes after the special committee formed to debate the contentious judicial package met under the chairmanship of PPP lawmaker Syed Khursheed Shah on Friday.
Speaking to the reporters, Shah said the draft would be presented in the federal cabinet meeting for approval.
“The draft has been approved unanimously,” he said adding that the committee has also agreed on allowing overseas Pakistanis to contest the elections.
