Is parliament effective?
Pakistan’s parliament is criticized for low attendance and rubber-stamping government actions, with reports showing only 20% of members attending all sittings in May. Constitutional amendments, including the 26th and 27th, were passed with minimal debate and transparency, undermining judicial independence and parliamentary authority.
