The Islamabad High Court (IHC) has asked the federal government to explain the delay in forwarding a summary concerning the appointment of judges.
The court issued notices to President Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, directing the respondents to explain the reasons behind the delay and its possible consequences.
The IHC sought clarification on why the appointments summary had not been processed within the expected timeframe, as the matter remains pending before the relevant authorities.
The court’s intervention comes amid broader discussions over the timely appointment of judges and the functioning of the judiciary.
The respondents are expected to submit their explanations before the court as proceedings continue.
