PPP Says It Is Premature to Comment on Proposed 28th Constitutional Amendment
May 2026 | By Azad News HD
The Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) has stated that it is too early to comment on reports regarding a possible 28th Constitutional Amendment, amid speculation that the proposed changes could affect provincial powers.
Speaking at a press briefing in Islamabad, PPP Senator :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0} said the party had not yet received any official draft of the proposed amendment and therefore could not offer a formal position.
He described the discussion as premature, noting that no formal proposal had been shared with the party leadership or coalition partners.
Similar remarks were reportedly made by senior PPP leadership, who said the party was not aware of any finalized development regarding constitutional changes.
Law Minister :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1} also recently stated that no constitutional amendment would be introduced without consultation with all coalition partners.
During the press conference, officials also discussed President Asif Ali Zardari’s recent visit to China, where multiple agreements and memorandums of understanding (MoUs) were signed in areas including defence, agriculture, healthcare and technology.
According to the briefing, one key agreement includes the development of a desalination plant with a capacity of five million gallons per day to help address water shortages in Karachi.
Other initiatives include cooperation in agricultural technology and cultural exchanges aimed at promoting Pakistani films in China, including the planned release of “The Legend of Maula Jatt.”
Conclusion
The PPP’s response indicates that political discussions around a potential 28th Constitutional Amendment remain at an early stage, with no formal proposal yet presented to key stakeholders.
