Political Vs. Judicial Activism (By: Dr. Zeeshan Khan)

Chief Justice Of Pakistan(CJP) Saqib Nisar is going to retire in mid Of January 2019. But,his services as CJP have been stupendous as we analyse.Though, there are also some reservations considering it judicial activism but it is incorrect, and actually, it is judicial outreach means exceeding the its powers.Judicial Outreach has a dire consequences too, because institutes in such way cease their work with the fear of an unwelcome scrutiny all the time.Indeed, there should be only judicial objectivity.However, the political system and its actors did not found his tenure as pleasant as the masses.Limits were violated by CJP according to them.This emotion of populism just drag CJP in the dubious limelight.The real problem is that the judiciary earlier was just moving with the status-quo without any pro-active approach.Has judiciary taken up a morsel which can not be chewed?
