Additional Attorney General (AAG) Nasar Ahmad told the court during the hearing of the case more changes are under consideration in 27th constitutional amendment and it is possible the objections of petitioner are removed following changes in the amendment.

The court inquired does the petitioner want to withdraw petition.

Advocate Maqsat Saleem counsel for the petitioner took the plea he is withdrawing the petition. However he will challenge 27th constitutional amendment again if he is not satisfied over the amendment in future.

Justice Javed Iqbal Chaudhry wrapped up the petition being withdrawn remarking the petitioner can file the new petition again if he wills so.

Prime Minister (PM), speaker National Assembly (NA) and law ministry were made respondents in the petition.
