How a Dream of Free and independent judiciary can be achieved
The fate of judiciary in Pakistan is shameful for the nation and gloomy for the public, therefore it is in inevitable need of change, but for the change of judiciary the change of prevailing socio-political system is imminent, which can turn the table. To revolutionize the judiciary system in place of current one (status co) and to create public satisfaction and trust in to the system, judiciary should be free from any administrative, political or military interference.
But the question is how it can be possible till the current socio political system is prevailing, mean until we agree to change the socio-political system till that time the interference from administration, politician and military will continue for their personal interest.
However, if we ignore the current socio-political system and let it prevail then, we may never be able to make the judiciary free from above evil ever. Being one of the important elements to rule the country IDP cannot ignore the importance of free and independence judiciary in the country.
Islamic Democratic Party believed that since the creation of Pakistan the people are left at distant from the corridor of power so that the ruling elite can do what they wanted to do in favours of their interest, leaving the people at the mercy of circumstances. As this policy is denial of right of Pakistani to voice their concern or to rule their country according to their aspiration and desire, which can provide equal opportunity to all without any discrimination for the establishment of welfare society.
The society base on tolerance, equality and justice can be the real guarantee for the prosperous and strong Pakistan there for your intent is invited to the current status co of judiciory.But to provide justice and protect the interest of the people and the nation, the judicionary should be independent and free from external intrusion:
- We believe that for the free and independent judiciary require the following formation formula; these should start from the formation of union of those involved in law profession such as lawyers and judges etc. at all level, and elect their representative of the union at district level within the division.
- All the elected representative of different district within the division will elect their collective representative at Divisional level. Care must be taken for equal representation from the entire district within the division.
- All the elected representative of different division within the province will elect their representative at state or province level; where in equal representation must be guaranteed for all the division within the province.
- All the elected representative of different provinces will elect their representative for the centre; care must be taken for equal representation from all the provinces.
- These elected members of the centre will represented the lawyer’s community in the country, will be responsible to look after all the requirement of the independent judiciary they will not allowed the any form of interference from other personnel, politician or even military .
- The above elected members of the law community will have their place in the senate of experts and help the elected representative of the public sitting in parliament to from laws for the welfare of the public and protect the National interest.
- Financially, administratively the judiciary should be free as independent entity the elected members of the Central committee shall be responsible to formulate the rules for requirement of education, experience, ability to handle the responsibility, preparation of syllabus for the future cadre of judges at district ,division and provincial level together with criteria for provinces and supreme court level.
