Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar has stated that the “number game” for the proposed constitutional amendments is over, and the focus is now on moving beyond the numbers.

Dar, along with Law Minister Azam Nazir Tarar, met with Pakistan Peoples Party Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari.

Responding to queries from journalists after the meeting, Dar said that the discussions between the parties were always positive.

When asked about the proposed constitutional amendments, Dar deflected the question, stating that he had not seen the draft. He suggested that the journalists ask the Law Minister for details.

Tarar, in response, said that the draft would be shared once the relevant committee approves it. He explained that the amendments will be presented to the cabinet before being tabled in parliament.

When pressed about the specific nature of the amendments, Dar responded that even the cabinet was unaware of the details, so he could not provide any information.

Regarding meetings with Maulana Fazlur Rehman, the leader of the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (F) party, Dar said that such meetings are routine and that they meet when necessary.

Responding to a question about whether the government is working to address the concerns of the public, particularly regarding inflation, Dar stated that inflation has already come down to 9.6%. He expressed confidence that it will continue to decrease.
