Pakistan Senate Approves 27th Amendment, Bringing Major Changes to Military and Judicial System

Pakistan's Senate has approved its 27th Amendment, which would reshape the country's military and courts by introducing sweeping changes to the judicial system and altering the military's command structure, amid criticism of the current power dynamics between the military and civilian government. The amendment is expected to have significant implications for Pakistan's governance structure and national security policies. Under the proposed changes, the President would no longer have the authority to appoint judges or remove them unilaterally, reducing the military's influence on the judiciary.
