President Asif Ali Zardari has signed the 27th Constitutional Amendment Bill, formally making it a part of the Constitution.
The amendment had already been approved by both houses of parliament, and the president’s signature completes the constitutional process.
Earlier today, the Senate had approved the bill with a two-thirds majority after a heated and chaotic session marked by loud protests, walkouts, and sharp exchanges between government and opposition benches.
