The Supreme Court on Friday sought a detailed report on the appointment of Zulfi Bukhari as the prime minister’s special assistant on overseas Pakistanis and human resource development.
Muhammad Adil Chattha from Lahore and Mirza Abdul Moiz Baig from Karachi had filed a petition against his appointment which was taken up by the top court at the Lahore registry.
Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Mian Saqib Nisar, presiding over today’s hearing, remarked that making appointments on important posts is a crucial national duty. “Such issues should be run as per the national interests and not on the basis of friendships,” the CJP said.
