ISLAMABAD: President Asif Ali Zardari on Thursday gave his assent to the long-debated 27th Constitutional Amendment after its approval from Parliament.
According to a notification issued by the Presidency, “The Constitution (Twenty-Seventh Amendment) Bill, 2025, is assented to, as advised by the Prime Minister at para 5 of the summary.”
With the president’s signature, the amendment has now officially become part of the Constitution.
The development came moments after the Senate approved the amendment bill following changes approved by the National Assembly a day earlier, amid noisy protests by the opposition.
