ISLAMABAD- Another shocking news for the Pakistan 13 parties ruling alliance as the President Dr Arif Alvi has sent back National Accountability (Amendment) Bill 2023 to parliament for reconsideration.

“The president sent back the piece of legislation, in terms of clause (1) (b) of the Article 75 of the Constitution,” said the Presidency.

 

 

The president said that this aspect of the legislation was neither referred to in the bill nor in the prime minister’s advice. 

 

He observed that without considering the implications of a pending matter, further amendments in the National Accountability Ordinance 1999 should be reconsidered, its said.
