Major details of the federal government’s proposed 27th Constitutional Amendment have surfaced, outlining significant changes to five key articles of the Constitution, sources said on Monday.

According to insiders, the government is seeking amendments to Articles 160 (3A), 191A, 213, 243, and a new article related to judicial restructuring.

Under the proposal, Article 160 (3A), which guarantees the provinces’ share in federal revenues, would be revised to remove the existing constitutional guarantee.

The draft also proposes a major overhaul of the judicial framework through amendments to Article 191A and the introduction of a new article providing for the creation of a “Constitutional Court” or “Supreme Constitutional Court.”

The new body would have final authority over constitutional interpretation, effectively redefining the existing judicial powers.

Amendments to Article 200 have also been proposed to modify the transfer process of High Court judges.

Additionally, the draft includes a proposal to bring education and population planning back under the federal government’s control, reversing the devolution introduced under the 18th Amendment.

Changes to Article 243 would ensure that the command of the armed forces rests solely with the federal government, while an amendment to Article 213 seeks to redefine the procedure for appointing the Chief Election Commissioner.

Sources said the draft amendment bill has been shared with the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), with the federal government seeking its support for parliamentary approval.
