The president of the Peoples Party of Pakistan, Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari, dismissed on Tuesday speculation about any potential legislation in a 27th constitutional amendment as “without foundation.”
Although the 26th Constitutional amendment remains tarnished in the controversy, the power corridors in Islamabad have been full of rumors of a possible 27th constitutional amendment. Speculation suggests that the potential amendment would bring more changes to the structure and functioning of the superior judiciary.
The 26th amendment had brought radical changes in the judicial framework.
In statements to journalists at the launch of Renewal Works for the Niaz stadium of Hyderabad, Bilawal touched the “Rumors without foundation.” “Until now, no federal minister, prime minister or party member has approached me with respect to any amendment.”
He stressed that the 26th amendment was approved after reaching a consensus and with the commitment of political parties. “PPP wanted constitutional courts, but we committed ourselves,” Bilawal said.

When commenting on India’s position on the swing of the Indo’s waters, Bilawal said that Pakistan should receive his part of three rivers under the agreement, warning that if the treaty is not honored, Pakistan would seek water from the six rivers under international law.
He recalled Hyderabad a year ago to inaugurate a water filtration plant and expressed his satisfaction with the rhythm of the ongoing projects by the provincial government. “In the past, some politicians sowed hate seeds here, but now Hyderabad will continue advancing.”
By emphasizing the need to change the traditional flood irrigation methods towards advanced water technology, he added: “So far, we have only focused on flood irrigation. The federal government must move towards modernization in the water sector.”
