A group of over 100 Pakistani civil society organizations has begun efforts to bring an end to the political impasse currently prevailing in the country, local media reported on Monday.These civil society organizations have proposed a multi-party conference (MPC) to bring Imran Khan's Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), Pakistan Muslim League (Nawaz) or PML-N, and Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) to a negotiating table. Among the organizations that are involved in organizing the proposed MPC are the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP), Pakistan Federation of Union of Journalists (PFUJ), and Pakistan Bar Council (PBC).While Imran Khan's party PTI has accepted the invitation to participate in the MPC, a meeting of civil society organizations with a few political parties -- who are part of the Shehbaz Sharif-led Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) -- is scheduled for Monday.The initiative of Pakistan civil society organizations, who call themselves "mediators" has come at a time when the South Asian country is engulfed in a constitutional crisis.The Supreme Court's court action came after the Election Commission of Pakistan postponed the elections to Punjab provincial assembly to 8 October.Irked by the apex court's action, the Pakistan National Assembly, dominated by lawmakers of the ruling coalition of Prime Minister Sharif, passed a resolution alleging that the Supreme Court was "interfering" in the functioning of the executive. The National Assembly even went on to call it "judicial activism".Meanwhile, Pakistan's apex court would take up the matter once again on Monday despite the ruling coalition's no confidence in the bench headed by Chief Justice Umer Ata Bandial.

Pakistan Civil Society Group Mediates to End Stalemate Between Gov't and Opposition
12:55 03.04.2023 (Updated: 15:32 03.04.2023) Pakistan's Shehbaz Sharif-led government has been at loggerheads with the country's opposition headed by former prime minister Imran Khan.
A group of over 100 Pakistani civil society organizations has begun efforts to bring an end to the political impasse currently prevailing in the country, local media reported on Monday.
These civil society organizations have proposed a multi-party conference (MPC) to bring Imran Khan's Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), Pakistan Muslim League (Nawaz) or PML-N, and Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) to a negotiating table.
Among the organizations that are involved in organizing the proposed MPC are the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP), Pakistan Federation of Union of Journalists (PFUJ), and Pakistan Bar Council (PBC).
While Imran Khan's party PTI has accepted the invitation to participate in the MPC, a meeting of civil society organizations with a few political parties -- who are part of the Shehbaz Sharif-led Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) -- is scheduled for Monday.
The initiative of Pakistan civil society organizations, who call themselves "mediators" has come at a time when the South Asian country is engulfed in a constitutional crisis.
Last week, the Sharif government accused the Supreme Court of Pakistan of fomenting "political instability" in the nation after the top court initiated "suo motu" proceedings regarding the delay in elections in the provinces of Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP).
The Supreme Court's court action came after the Election Commission of Pakistan postponed the elections to Punjab provincial assembly to 8 October.
Irked by the apex court's action, the Pakistan National Assembly, dominated by lawmakers of the ruling coalition of Prime Minister Sharif, passed a resolution alleging that the Supreme Court was "interfering" in the functioning of the executive.
The National Assembly even went on to call it "judicial activism".
Meanwhile, Pakistan's apex court would take up the matter once again on Monday despite the ruling coalition's no confidence in the bench headed by Chief Justice Umer Ata Bandial.
