Islamabad (Web Desk): The government is set to convene a joint session of Parliament, with the potential reintroduction of the controversial Madrassa Bill on the agenda.
According to the sources, summary for calling the session has been forwarded to the President of Pakistan for approval, which is anticipated to be granted shortly.
The joint session is expected to take place on December 17, the sources added.
The Madrassa Bill has sparked a prolonged dispute between the government and the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (JUI-F).
While the bill was initially passed by Parliament, President Asif Ali Zardari sent it back with objections, resulting in delays.
There are indications that the bill could be reintroduced during the upcoming joint session.
The tension between the government and Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) over the bill remains unresolved, with both parties maintaining opposing positions on the proposed legislation.
