ISLAMABAD:

A panel of experts at a webinar urged the state institutions to understand the implications of their politically motivated conflicts on socioeconomic deterioration, and its dent in the democratic instability.

“Overstepping on other’s jurisdiction has created chaos and extreme divides,” experts at the webinar titled "Judicial imperialism in Pakistan and its impact on society", organised by DTN and Devcom-Pakistan said on Saturday.

“A larger consultative process among the political parties shall help cool down the political temperature, while the judges shall adhere to the code of conduct,” they said.

The panel of experts included former senator Farhatullah Babar, senior journalist Mazhar Abbas, Human Rights Law expert Huma Chughtai and Devcom-Pakistan Executive Director Munir Ahmed.
