I was amazed to see the recent statement of Imran Khan in the press in which he has stated: If Parliament has to do everything, what is the use of having an apex court? I would put this question to Mr Khan rather this way: If apex court has to do everything, what is the use of having a parliament? Parliament is the supreme body everywhere and people cannot be allowed to snatch powers from parliament for their personal likings or disliking. I advise Mr Khan to study the Constitution of UK as its parliament is already labelled as the “Mother of all parliaments.” It is generally said that the UK Parliament can do each and every thing except to change the sex of woman to a man and vice versa.
We all must condemn the efforts being made by a lobby in Pakistan who wants to eliminate the supremacy of the parliament for their vested interests.
