Defense Minister Khawaja Asif has revealed that Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Fazlur Rehman did not support the government regarding the crucial constitutional amendments.
Speaking to reporters outside the Parliament House on Monday, Khawaja Asif commented on the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the passage of the constitutional amendment.
"It seems the numbers were not complete," Asif stated. "I was present in the National Assembly since morning, so I am unaware of the details. However, the legislation did not pass due to insufficient numbers."
Mr Asif's remarks followed growing speculation over the delay in legislative proceedings.
Meanwhile, the Senate and National Assembly sessions, which were convened to deliberate on the constitutional amendments, have been postponed until 12:30 PM tomorrow. The reason for the delay remains unclear.
