The government’s step to expand the number of cabinet members has been challenged in Lahore High Court. The petitioner, Siddique Azhar, has stated that the expansion of cabinet is a violation of the 18th amendment. He lamented that, Raja Pervez Ashraf, had been made minister who didn’t fall on the merit as per article 62 and 63 of constitution after being accused in cases of corruption.
The petitioner requested the court to halt functioning of new ministers as the Prime Minister had taken an unconstitutional and illegal step. Earlier, a decision was made to induct new ministers and expand the Federal cabinet size to 55.
Such a big cabinet, zulm zulm zulm!
