Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif held a meeting with his legal team and some PML-N leaders vowing to hold Parliament “supreme” in the face of the Supreme Court’s decisions regarding elections to the Punjab Assembly and staying implementation of the Supreme Court (Practice and Procedure) Act, 2023.

The Supreme Court had halted implementation of the bill seeking to curtail the Chief Justice of Pakistan’s (CJP) powers to take suo motu notices and constituting benches.
