ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi Sunday said that Senate was an integral part of the Parliament and its role in legislative framework of the country by effectively guarding the right
s of the federating units
was highly praiseworthy.
In his message to the nation on the 45th Foundation Day of the Senate of Paki
stan being observed on the day, the prime minister extended his heartiest felicitations to the people of Pakistan. He said Paki
stan being a federal state would flourish more when federating units had better representation at the federal level.
Premier Abbasi said the representation
was well achieved in the House of Federation where all units had equal representation in ter
ms of number and hence had more protection of their interests and rights. “The Senate of Pakistan, I am hopeful, will continue to play its due role to protect and preserve the right
s of the federating units according to the true spirit of the federation,” the prime minister added.
