Constitutional Amendment Main Asal Rukawat Hai Kiya....??? Barrister Aqeel Malik's Statement
Transcript
00:00Aqeel Malik sahib is with us right now. Thank you very much Mr. Aqeel Malik sahib.
00:05Right now, I have heard Atta Tariq sahib's press conference.
00:09He is not looking confident. He is saying that we are making efforts.
00:12Yesterday when you spoke to me, you were pretty much confident that today the meme will be tabled,
00:17it will be counted, it will be passed.
00:20Then why are you still struggling? Atta Tariq sahib said 15 minutes ago that we are still making efforts.
00:27Bismillah r-Rahman r-Rahim. Thank you very much.
00:30As I said in your program yesterday, the government's position in terms of numbers is very comfortable.
00:37There is no issue in that.
00:38But obviously, when there is a consultative process and a consensus has to be developed,
00:42it is obvious that there are some doubts and some suggestions.
00:48I said in your program that Maulana sahib had very good suggestions.
00:52I have also kept that in mind.
00:54Along with that, I will definitely say that we have also seen some more suggestions that he has presented.
01:04And we have inculcated it in this competition.
01:07In its salient features.
01:08So this is not a bad thing here.
01:11What Atta Tariq sahib said is absolutely correct that a broader consensus should be developed.
01:15Instead of this, it should not be taken on board.
01:18Where did the conversation stop?
01:20Where did the conversation get stuck, Mr. Aqeel Malik?
01:22The consultation is taking place.
01:23We can see that it is taking place 72 hours in advance.
01:25Where did the conversation stop?
01:27On which issue is there a deadlock at the moment?
01:30But the deadlock is not on any specific issue.
01:34Obviously, the prior things that were being reported in the media,
01:39there were some related to legislation.
01:42Apart from that, the mechanism is related to the Constitutional Court.
01:49I told you yesterday in your program that the spirit of the Constitution
01:53and the spirit of the Charter of Democracy,
01:56which was signed in 2006,
01:58and then there was a further all-party conference,
02:01in which all the parties agreed, including Bani and PTI.
02:05So all these things are being tweaked back and forth.
02:09This is a matter of routine.
02:11But Mr. Bais, you have been calling your parliamentarians and senators here for many days.
02:15They have to vote.
02:17And today, you have postponed the meeting twice since morning.
02:21Isn't it a little bit embarrassing that even yesterday...
02:24Not at all.
02:25No, because the meeting has not been held yet.
02:27It seems as if the homework was not complete.
02:29No, the homework was completely complete.
02:31And it is not like that.
02:32When your government is of allies,
02:35when a single party does not have a two-thirds majority,
02:38and it has allies,
02:39and all the allies have to be on board,
02:41and the opposition has to be on board in the Constitutional Amendment.
02:44I had said in your program that the opposition is also on board.
02:47And you had appreciated this,
02:49that you are taking Mr. Maulana on board.
02:51We are also taking PTI on board.
02:53We are also taking PTI on board in the committee that was there.
02:56We are also telling them that these are all his secrets,
03:00and these are his salient features.
03:02So this is not something that is being hidden or not being told.
03:06Because in this whole process,
03:08in this whole process,
03:10the secrecy, that is the problem.
03:12If you have to pass this bill,
03:15if you have to make a consensus,
03:17then this 48-hour sense of urgency,
03:19in which your consultation is not complete yet,
03:21as if we are speaking right now,
03:23the consultation is still going on,
03:25to call Jilas in that,
03:27to delay it twice,
03:28what should we understand about this?
03:30Look, Ms. Maria,
03:32the consultation,
03:34as it is,
03:36because there is a committee,
03:38and five new members of that committee have also come.
03:40It is obvious that the opinion is coming from all sides,
03:43and every member has his own valuable input,
03:47valuable suggestion.
03:49So that also has to be kept in mind.
03:51And this is not such a big thing.
03:53This is being tweaked a little.
03:54The consultation is the same,
03:56which I also mentioned in your program yesterday.
03:58Sir, that consultation,
03:59actually, we were talking to Mr. Mingle,
04:01who is the chairman of BNP.
04:03He is saying that he has not seen the consultation yet.
04:05You need his two votes,
04:06but you have not shown him the consultation yet.
04:08Where is that thing stopped?
04:10There is a negotiation between them as well.
04:11Look, I have spoken to their Prime Minister.
04:13And there is no such thing.
04:15When this will be taken up in the National Assembly,
04:17and after that you will see,
04:19there is a majority in the Senate as well.
04:21And there is no such thing.
04:23If you are talking about a deadlock,
04:25then the deadlock is not at any point.
04:27The general overall that is coming,
04:29because after this, obviously,
04:31the committee has to meet as well.
04:33After that, there is cabinet approval as well.
04:35And finally, it will be taken up as well.
04:37There is no such thing.
04:39So, from 4 o'clock, you delayed the meeting
04:41to 8 o'clock of the National Assembly.
04:43Now, you have delayed it again.
04:45This will be presented today, right?
04:47This table will be presented, right?
04:49Yes, absolutely.
04:50This will be presented in the National Assembly.
04:52And after that, it will be presented in the Senate as well.
04:54So, this will not be a roll-over tomorrow,
04:56that today your consultation will go on,
04:58and tomorrow you will present this.
05:00Can you do that?
05:01Because you have to build a consensus.
05:03You are bringing everyone on board.
05:05If it goes on tomorrow as well,
05:07then there is no such thing for us.
05:09Obviously, we do not want to do this
05:11in haste or in haste.
05:13We are taking all the parties,
05:15the political stakeholders,
05:17in the political parties,
05:19in the parliament,
05:21we are taking them on board.
05:23That at least tomorrow,
05:25no political party should say
05:27that our opinion has been ignored
05:29or we have not been brought on board.
05:31So, obviously,
05:33all these things are there.
05:35And there is no such thing
05:39that if there is a deadlock somewhere
05:41or if we are unable to move past,
05:43then there is no such thing.
05:45And you are also talking to Mr. Maulana
05:47about justice.
05:49How confident are you?
05:51That's a good thing.
05:53All political parties should be discussed.
05:55But how confident are you
05:57that what you are discussing with Mr. Maulana
05:59is being decided?
06:01Mr. Maulana is a stakeholder.
06:03He is also talking to Mr. Maulana.
06:05Has Mr. Maulana assured you
06:07that he will collaborate with you
06:09on a few other issues?
06:13Look, I think, in principle,
06:15obviously,
06:17he has also discussed this
06:19with his legal team
06:21and party members.
06:23So, I am sure,
06:25of course,
06:27if there was something
06:29that Mr. Maulana would have said
06:31on this issue,
06:33he would have said it.
06:35But so far,
06:37there has been no such thing.
06:39And so far,
06:41whatever he has seen in this issue,
06:43there is an overall agreement.
