''Constitution, President ko qanon sazi ko ghair muyasar karnay ki ijazat nahi deta...'', Irfan Qadir
Transcript
00:00 I am not sure if Sadr was misguided or not. I am ready to believe what Sadr is saying.
00:07 If we listen to Sadr for a while, what is he saying? He is saying that this bill should
00:14 be made unconstitutional and it should be made a law. And if it is not, then it should
00:21 be made a law. And if it is not, then it should be made a law. And if it is not, then it should
00:28 be made a law. And if it is not, then it should be made a law. And if it is not, then it should
00:35 be made a law. And if it is not, then it should be made a law. And if it is not, then it should
00:42 be made a law. And if it is not, then it should be made a law. And if it is not, then it should
00:49 be made a law. And if it is not, then it should be made a law. And if it is not, then it should
00:56 be made a law. And if it is not, then it should be made a law. And if it is not, then it should
01:03 be made a law. And if it is not, then it should be made a law. And if it is not, then it should
01:10 be made a law. And if it is not, then it should be made a law. And if it is not, then it should
01:17 be made a law. And if it is not, then it should be made a law. And if it is not, then it should
01:24 be made a law. And if it is not, then it should be made a law. And if it is not, then it should
01:31 be assented by the President. And therefore, it will become law.
01:35 So, you are saying that he was in breach of his constitutional duty.
01:42 So, you are saying that he was in breach of his constitutional duty.
01:45 So, you are saying that he was in breach of his constitutional duty.
01:48 So, you are saying that he was in breach of his constitutional duty.
01:51 So, you are saying that he was in breach of his constitutional duty.
01:54 So, you are saying that he was in breach of his constitutional duty.
01:57 So, you are saying that he was in breach of his constitutional duty.
02:00 So, you are saying that he was in breach of his constitutional duty.
02:05 He has breached his constitutional duty.
02:09 But sir, if it was so, and he was sitting quietly,
02:13 is it not the duty of the Amla to remind him?
02:16 In such a situation, the High Court also takes the responsibility, which is the constitutional duty of the President.
02:21 And does this automatically mean that it was deemed to be assented?
02:27 So, this is a conflict in the interpretation.
02:31 Yes, now I will tell you that if the President, in this President,
02:36 he, the poor people, do you remember, dissolved the assembly?
02:40 Yes.
02:41 The National Assembly was dissolved.
02:44 He had dissolved the entire cabinet at that time.
02:47 He had declared it as a non-law.
02:48 If the President has a heart and says that I do not want to work on it, I will sit,
02:53 then you mean that the Pakistan law is so weak that all that legislation will stop?
02:59 It will never stop.
03:00 Seeing this, this thing, the words have been incorporated,
03:06 deemed to have assented.
03:08 This is why it is deemed to have assented.
03:10 There is no other situation where the relevance of deemed to have assented will be made.
03:15 This was added in stage 2 after the 18th amendment.
03:18 But Irfan Qadir Sahib, you are saying that even in the first stage,
03:22 if the President does not do anything, then the assented will be assumed.
03:25 Absolutely.
03:26 If he sits down and does not do his work, then that much time passes,
03:31 then that law will be made.
03:33 So, Irfan Qadir Sahib, this official secret act has now been challenged in the court in Lahore High Court.
03:38 Are you seeing its foundation?
03:41 Very interesting that there are two aspects in this.
03:44 One is that it will be said that this law was not made.
03:49 And the second aspect is that even if this law was made,
03:55 then is this law contrary to the law?
03:58 So, if the Supreme Court reaches the conclusion that these two provisions,
04:03 which the law was made and the amendments were made in accordance with it,
04:06 then the Supreme Court can still say that it can strike down the provision by quoting it.
04:13 But in both cases, the present Chief Justice of the Supreme Court cannot make a bench of his own will.
04:21 He cannot decide this with three judges.
04:24 The collegium made under the Practice and Procedure Act of the Chief Justice and two senior judges,
04:32 if it goes to the full court, then it will be a legitimacy.
04:36 Otherwise, if he makes a bench of his own judges, then there is no chance of altering it.
04:42 Irfan Qadir, the next month, the tenure of President of the Republic of India, Alvi,
04:46 will be completed from his post.
04:49 But now he has immunity.
04:52 As long as he is President of Pakistan, I was talking to a few experts.
04:56 They believe that if he resigns from his post or if he is dismissed,
05:00 there can be a legal action against him.
05:03 What do you have to say?
05:05 But there is a very dangerous thing in this.
05:07 If tomorrow it is declared that he has done an unconstitutional thing as President,
05:14 then the trust that he has, he has betrayed it.
05:19 Because this is a sacred trust, the President's office.
05:22 And if you do not obey the sacred trust, betray the sacred trust,
05:26 then it means that there is no trust.
05:28 Then he can be disqualified from it.
05:30 And a person who is disqualified in this way,
05:32 he cannot be the party head in the Supreme Court.
05:36 You have shed light on the betrayal of the sacred trust.
05:38 Because if the President is telling his staff,
05:40 and then of course he will have to present a record.
05:44 How important is the writing?
05:46 That written document should be available.
05:48 Because sir, all the bureaucrats we have talked to,
05:50 they say that the language of the President of the country is as important as the language of the government.
05:55 When he orders his staff to do something.
05:58 I have talked to you in the beginning.
06:01 I am not questioning him, I am accepting him.
06:05 But the language that he has spoken,
06:07 he cannot send it back in this way.
06:09 He will have to bring it in writing that he has assented.
06:14 Or he has said reconsideration on it.
06:18 Because he did not talk about reconsideration in the tweet,
06:22 did not even talk about assent.
06:24 So the course he has adopted,
06:26 that course is against Article 75.
06:28 And Article 75 of the Constitution,
06:30 a common man can easily understand.
06:33 The President has probably not seen it.
06:35 Or the President has been drafted by his legal eagles,
06:39 who themselves have not considered it.
06:41 A common man can understand.
06:43 Here we are not even getting the consensus of lawyers.
06:45 A unique mirror image of one's own nature has been created in the country.
06:49 President Albi had a chance to remain President for a long time.
06:52 Until the Electoral College is not completed,
06:54 till the next elections, he could have remained President.
06:56 What will he get from this step?
06:59 The pressure of resignation is also increasing.
07:01 You know that when the President broke the assembly,
07:05 then the Speaker's execution and the President's execution,
07:10 a judge of the Supreme Court said that this is a fraud on the constitution of Pakistan.
07:15 Where the President himself had done such a big unconstitutional thing,
07:19 on which the Supreme Court had to declare him unconstitutional.
07:22 And a judge of the Supreme Court said that this is a game of the Constitution,
07:27 that this is a fraud. In other words, I would say that he had disrespected the Constitution.
07:31 So where he has done such a big thing,
07:33 then according to that, this is a violation of Article 75.
07:36 This is a very small violation.
07:38 But President Arif Alvi has changed his secretary.
07:41 Does this mean that the Secretary has proceeded on his own,
07:44 although he is denying all these allegations?
07:46 Is there a process against the Secretary?
07:49 The FIR has also been discussed in the President's office.
07:52 It should not be cut at all.
07:54 The FIR should not be cut on the Secretary either.
07:56 Because the President's order is such that he cannot carry it out.
08:00 The President is saying that make it ineffective.
08:02 The President is saying that make it ineffective.
08:05 How can the Secretary make it ineffective?
08:08 And you are in search of further investigations,
08:11 whether it is judicial or parliamentary.
08:14 I think it will be a waste of time.
08:17 The President has confessed.
08:19 The President has confessed that he acted unconstitutionally.
08:23 And notwithstanding that, do you think this law is in place today or not?
08:28 This law is in place.
08:30 But this challenge will definitely be faced in the Supreme Court.
08:34 And I have already told you that they will have to be sent to full court.
08:38 But what options do you think the President has?
08:41 Should he remain silent, resign or continue to be stubborn?
08:44 I think if he talks to the President,
08:46 and if he has made a mistake, then he should apologize for it.
08:49 Otherwise, the second option would be better.
08:53 Thank you, Irfan Qadir.
08:55 We're going to take a very short break.
08:56 We're going to be right back.
