Constitutional amendment not a concession to be wrested, says AJK SC on presidential reference

The Azad Jammu and Kashmir Supreme Court issued an advisory opinion stating that constitutional amendments are not concessions to be forced from the government, following a reference by acting AJK President Chaudhry Latif Akbar. The court emphasized that the constitution is the supreme law of the region and must be amended through a democratic process. The reference arose from the Joint Awami Action Committee's demand to abolish 12 refugee seats in the legislative assembly.
