Supreme Court to welcome 25 Judges as Senate approves to raise number of SC judges to 25Pakistan People’s Party Senator Shahadat Awan emphasized the need to raise the number of Supreme Court judges to at least 21.Advertisementon Law and Justice agreed to increase the number of Supreme Court judges to 25 to help clear the backlog of cases.
JUI-F Senator Kamran Murtaza, in a statement, said the legislation was meant to appoint “favorite judges” in the top court. “After Oct 25, the judges are working smoothly There is no need to increase the sanctioned strength,” he added. He pointed out that more than 60,000 cases were pending in the apex court and emphasized the need to increase the number of judges in the high courts.
He sought to increase the number of top court judges from 17 to 21 due to the “more than 53,000 cases” pending in the apex court. It is worth mentioning that to reduce the backlog of cases, the government appointed two retired judges—Justice Tariq Masood and Justice Mazhar Alam Miankhel—as ad hoc judges to the apex court for one year in July.
