Separately on Sunday, JUI-F leader Maulana Abdul Ghafoor Haideri said on Sunday that it will take at least one month to read the proposed constitutional amendment.

Expressing his thoughts, Haideri said, “Was the government not providing us the draft if it really belonged to it? [government].”

Earlier, Haider stated that his party had not received a draft yet in line with the “constitutional package.”.

Speaking to media in Islamabad Haideri said: “We do not have received the constitutional amendment bill as of now. How can we opt to cast a vote without seeing the bill?”

“We should be given the opportunity to read the bill in detail once. We will present our opinion after ensuring our presence in the parliament,” he maintained.

“I don’t understand why this matter is being handled so quickly,” Haideri added.
