Govt of Pakistan Ministry of law and justice 20th August, 2023 Press release The Ministry of Law & Justice has noted with grave concern the President's recent tweet. As per Article 75 of the Constitution, when a Bill is sent for assent, the President has two options: either give assent, or refer the matter to the parliament with specific observations. Article 75 does not provide for any third option. In the instant matter, neither of the requirements were fullfiled. Instead, the President purposely delayed the assent. Returning the bills without any observations or assent is not provided for in the Constitution. Such a course of action is against the letter and spirit of the constitution. If the President had any observations, he could have returned the bills with his observations like he did in the recent and distant past. He could have also issued a press release to that effect. It is a matter of concern that the President has chosen to discredit his own officials. The President should take responsibility for his own actions.
