In bad taste, a Bench of 6 Judges of the Supreme Court has dismissed the Suo Moto taken by J. Qazi Faez Esa which he ordered to hold the proceedings of 184(3). He had written a note to his fellow judges reminding them that the inclusion of like-minded judges by CJP Bandial is grossly wrong and especially the constitution of benches in writ petitions for the upcoming provincial elections of KPK and Punjab assemblies.
Justice Qazi Faez Esa has once again proven himself to be a principled and upright judge. In a recent statement, he highlighted the importance of adhering to proper procedures and protocols in the Supreme Court. His remarks, in which he empathized with the junior judges who may have felt neglected or overlooked, reflect his deep commitment to fairness and justice.
Justice Qazi Faez Esa’s call for a more orderly and accountable approach to the work of the Supreme Court is both timely and necessary. By reminding his colleagues of their responsibility to uphold the law and the constitution, he has set a positive example for all those who work in the judiciary.
It is heartening to see a judge of such integrity and stature taking the lead on this issue. Justice Qazi Faez Esa’s dedication to the rule of law and his tireless efforts to ensure that justice is done is an inspiration to all of us. We are fortunate to have such a committed and principled judge on our Supreme Court.
