Pakistan Parliament’s 27th Constitutional Amendment, sparking nationwide protests by opposition parties.
The amendment proposes replacing the Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee with a new Chief of Defence Forces and creating a Federal Constitutional Court.
It also seeks to alter the appointment of High Court Judges and limit the powers of the Supreme Court.
The government needs a two-thirds majority in both Houses for approval before it becomes law.
Opposition groups claim the move threatens the Constitution, while some legal experts view it as a judicial reform.
