ISLAMABAD, Sep 23 (APP):Adviser to the Prime Minister on Law and Justice, Barrister Aqeel Malik, on Monday said that inclusion of climate change as a constitutional right was the landmark step in the 26th Constitutional Amendment.
In addition, the 26th Amendment will play a crucial role in strengthening the judicial system, he said while speaking to a private news channel.
“This will be the first parliament in the world to grant constitutional recognition to climate change,” he said.
He further noted that the amendment has been unfairly criticized, with its true meaning misunderstood and the government’s real intent misinterpreted.

Several meetings were held involving the Law Minister, Information Minister, and coalition partners to ensure broad consensus, he added.
In response to a question, he said that that Maulana Fazlur Rehman requested additional time to ensure broad consultation, which was agreed upon.
