Earlier,  As political parties work towards reaching a consensus on upcoming constitutional amendments, the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) has nominated its chairman, Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari, as the parliamentary leader of the party.

This development comes as members of the treasury benches are actively seeking the opposition’s support for the 26th constitutional amendment, which primarily addresses judicial reforms.

Speaking to the media outside the Parliament House in Islamabad on Friday, PPP leader Khursheed Shah, who chairs the Special Committee of Parliament on the constitutional draft, confirmed the nomination of Bilawal as parliamentary leader.

PPP leader Naveed Qamar has also submitted the necessary documents for the election of the party chairman to the National Assembly Office.

According to the constitution, the parliamentary leader is empowered to direct party members on voting matters concerning constitutional amendments, finance bills, and the election of the prime minister or speaker based on party policy.
