00:00The most important thing is that the government is going to change the way it elects the Chief Justice.

00:10One of the five senior judges will be able to choose the committee that will be formed after the constitutional amendment.

00:19What is your opinion on this proposal?

00:22I would say that they have found a way to end the Supreme Court.

00:31This is a very disappointing move.

00:34They want the Supreme Court not to remain free.

00:38They want the Supreme Court to appoint the judge and the Chief Justice as they please.

00:43After a long struggle, the Supreme Court has decided that the Chief Justice will be the Supreme Court's senior judge.

00:54There is no way to change this.

00:59The Supreme Court will be divided from within.

01:02It will become weak.

01:04The jurisdiction will be affected.

01:06They are trying to bring this government on the basis of malice.

01:10This is unacceptable.

01:13But Mr. Nawaz, they say that the Supreme Court has a political role in this country's history.

01:19It has existed for 75 years.

01:21If the Chief Justice is elected on the basis of merit and competence,

01:27then maybe they will be able to weaken that tradition.

01:32They are trying to prevent political interference.

01:36This is not political interference.

01:38These constitutional issues have political implications.

01:42The Supreme Court has to resolve these issues.

01:50If the decision is not made on the basis of the will of the government,

01:55they say that this is political interference.

01:57If the decision is made on the basis of the will of the government,

01:59they say that the Supreme Court is very independent.

02:00All of this is a lie.

02:02This is the dark side of our history.

02:06Some governments have tried to weaken the Supreme Court.

02:12But they have always failed.

02:14And as a result, whoever tried,

02:17they have been punished.

02:20If they think that they can weaken the Supreme Court,

02:23they don't know that they are hitting their own feet.

02:26In the context of Article 63A,

02:33can this be amended now?

02:37Because this decision will be made on the basis of those votes.

02:41So technically, can the government amend this now?

02:45Not at all.

02:47This will clearly lead to a trade war.

02:52This will lead to a trade war.

02:59This was a good amendment.

03:01The 14th amendment.

03:03But it was stopped.

03:05And it was made clear to the people that

03:08from now on, you cannot have a trade war.

03:11Today, the government is trying to have a trade war.

03:14And because there is a very good judgment against having a trade war,

03:19they are trying to do all the wrong things.

03:23The so-called amendment package

03:27means that the good amendments of the amendment should be amended.

03:32And the wrong amendments that have been misused in history

03:37and have destroyed the democracy,

03:39and have destroyed the amendment, should be brought back.

03:42Mr. Hamid, he is saying that using these amendments

03:45has destroyed the democracy through judicial activism.

03:48These amendments were put in place for judicial activism

03:51so that the judiciary is strong enough

03:53to repeatedly intervene in the affairs of the government.

03:55They are blocking the way.

03:57Look, they are trying to...
