Islamabad:
In a judgment written by the Chief Justice of Pakistan, the Supreme Court has said that the challenging decision has not been stopped due to the appeal, review or pending petition.
The Supreme Court rules are also clear from the 1980 regulations that the appeal does not mean that the decision should not be implemented, however, if the court wants, the implementation of the challenged verdict can be stopped with certain conditions or by preventive.
The decision was taken by Chief Justice Yahya Afridi, headed by Nyaya Shakeel Ahmed and Justice Ishtiaq Ibrahim, which was in the Bahwalpur case in the case of Chief Commissioner Punjab, Punjab, Punjab.
The verdict said that these petitions pending in the Supreme Court were related to the orders of amendment, which were issued by the Lahore High Court a decade ago, in which the revenue officials were directed to decide the matter as per law, despite these clear instructions, the deputy commissioner was not in the case of Bahawalpur and Bahawalpur.
Additional Advocate General Punjab confirmed that no order was issued by any court. This confession makes it clear that there was no legal justification for failure to execute.
The Supreme Court has considered necessary to highlight dangerous behavior in which remand order is considered alternate or suspended indefinitely, remand does not mean delayed, when high courts issue remand instructions, they are bound to act as urgency.
This is not only a personal negligence, but a symbol of permanent administrative negligence from compulsory judicial orders, which is a systematic failure and requires immediate improvement. To consider the case, the court sought a personal hearing of the senior member board of Revenue Punjab, so he assured the court that clear and comprehensive policy directions would be issued at the provincial level, which would direct all concerned authorities to implement remand orders immediately and without delay.
The implementation will be monitored and a report of the current status of all pending amendments in their jurisdiction will be submitted to the court. The court ordered that the latest status of all pending amendments in the province, within three months of issuing the order, should be submitted to the Registrar of this court.
