The government of Pakistan Awami Tehreek pledges to provide immediate and cost-free
justice. The judicial system of the country will be made very effective to provide
immediate justice.
A change will be brought about in the structure of the judicial system for the
provision of immediate and speedy justice. According to this plan, the powers of
the judiciary will be devolved to the lower level. Thus a new judicial structure
will come into being:
- Establishment of federal court at the central level
- Establishment of Supreme court at the provincial level
- Establishment of High courts at the district level
- Establishment of Municipal courts at tehsil level
- Establishment of local courts at the union council level
In order to increase the performance of the judges, their salaries will register
a considerable increase so that they are able to shoulder responsibilities with
utmost concentration.
The reforms will be undertaken to provide immediate and speedy justice.
The Department of Legal Help will be established for the purpose of protection
of civil liberties of the citizens and ensure the provision of speedy justice.
The centers for the legal training of the citizens will be established to spread
awareness about law among the people where short courses and workshops will be conducted
to achieve the above-mentioned purpose.
Corruption
Illegal activities of every kind fall within the domain of corruption. But there
is no comprehensive definition incorporating corrupt attitudes and practices. That
is why most of the people go scot-free. Our government will take effective actions
against the corrupt activities like conspicuous disagreement between legal sources
of income and existing assets and standard of life, abuse of power for personal
ends, misfeasance, misconduct, bribery, negligence in the performance of duty, embezzlement
of governmental and public assets, counterfeiting and the enforcement of economically
unfeasible and sub-standard plans for political gains:
- Prohibitory steps
- Punitive steps
- Administrative steps
- Steps for transparency in the system
The properties and assets of defaulters will be confiscated and no body will
be allowed to usurp even a single penny. Accountability courts will be set up at
the district level. Summary Accountability Courts will also be established to decide
on the corruption cases speedily.
Multi-dimensional accountability will be conducted to mete out strict punishments
to those who will be found involved in corrupt practices as a part of drive aimed
at purging the society of corruption of bureaucracy and political elite. According
to this plan, legal, administrative, political, and financial accountability will
be conducted.
In order to establish corruption-free society:
The political-bureaucratic liaison will be dismantled and an anti-corruption
drive will be launched at social level to spread the awareness among the masses.
An effective relationship will be established with the Association of States
Against Corruption to ensure the elimination of corruption at the state level.
