The Chairperson of the Committee of Selection,
Manzoor Nadir, is expected to call initial meetings as early as next week to kickstart the work of 13 newly constituted parliamentary committees, following a decisive meeting of the Committee of Selection earlier this afternoon. The move is a step towards ending the 100-day legislative gridlock since the assembly's last sitting, successfully mobilizing key democratic guardrails and legislative oversight frameworks that had been left vacant.
