Islamabad: Pakistan’s President Asif Ali Zardari on Wednesday said that the government firmly believed in the trichotomy of power which was well defined in the constitution of the country.
Speaking to a delegation of Executive Committee of Supreme Court Bar Association, at the Aiwan-e-Sadr, he said that it was imperative for strength and stability of the system, that every institution of the state performed its functions in accordance with constitutional limits.
He said that in comparatively young democracies, some institutions may, at times, appear to be overstepping their constitutional limits but added that this was part of the evolutionary process.
Law Minister Senator Farook H. Naek, Spokesperson to the President Senator Farhatullah Babar, Secretary to the President Malik Asif Hayat and other officials were also present during the meeting.
Zardari said the government has taken a number of important steps, during its tenure, for strengthening of rule of law in the country.
He said restoration of 1973 Constitution to its original form was no small achievement of the present government.
The members of the Executive Committee said the Bar had always supported democracy and democratic institutions and would continue to do the same in the future as well.
The president assured the delegation that he would advise the government to immediately release Rs 30 million as grant to SCBA and to also consider the other issues of the Bar favorably.
