PAD questions constitutionality of charter amendment bill

The People's Alliance for Democracy on Thursday petitioned the Office of the Attorney General to launch an inquiry into the constitutionality of the charter amendment bill.

The PAD’s petition contends that the charter amendment bill is unconstitutional since it seeks to repeal the Constitution.
It further charges that  the 36-member Cabinet, 305 MPs and 76 senators have wrongfully endorsed the bill because they only have the mandate to amend the charter.
