KARACHI: In yet another move to keep a check on the power's of the president, the Constitutional Reform Committee has transfered the authority to appoint service chiefs from the president to the prime minister.
Sources revealed on Thursday that the decision was unanimously agreed upon by all the major political parties, including the PPP, PML-N, MQM and the Awami Muslim league.
In an amendment to Article 243 of the constitution, the president will now have to consult the prime minister of Pakistan, before appointing service chiefs. –DawnNews
