The political landscape in Pakistan is currently marked by significant tensions and legislative standstills, as evidenced by the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf's (PTI) ongoing boycott of standing committees. According to The Frontier Post, this boycott has led to the removal of a family laws bill from the Senate Standing Committee on Religious Affairs' agenda. The bill, moved by opposition senator Ali Zafar, has been pending since 2024, but the absence of PTI members has made it impractical to keep it on the agenda. The committee's chairman, Maulana Atta-ur-Rehman, stated, 'If PTI members do not attend the committee meetings, their bills are removed from the agenda.' This decision reflects a broader frustration with the legislative process being hindered by political boycotts and highlights the challenges faced in advancing opposition-sponsored bills without bipartisan cooperation.
