Parliamentarians on Thursday formed a multi-party caucus on rule of law, said a press release. Under the convenership of Senator Hasil Khan Bizenjo the caucus comprises of parliamentarians from both the Senate and the National Assembly.
Senator Bizenjo stated that it was alarming that the sixth most populous country in the world was ranked a dismal 98th out of a total of 102 countries on the World Justice Project Report on Rule of Law Index 2015.
“Our neighbouring India ranks 59,” the senator said.
Senator Bizenjo nominated a seven-member committee to finalise rules of business for the caucus.
The committee includes Awais Leghari as chair, with Ali Muhammad Khan, Senator Mohsin Khan Leghari, Romina Khurshid Alam, Senator Taj Haider, Senator Usman Khan Kakar and Aasiya Nasir as members.
