law and Justice Reform Again (ENGLISH)

Today my guest is Irfan Qadir, who was the Attorney General of Pakistan till 2013. An accomplished and well-known lawyer, who has been a leading proponent of judicial restraint and reform. 

We have been running with the colonial system for 70 years and it is overstretched and at the limits of its capacity. Irfan tells us of the many inconsistencies in our judiciary that seems to be concerned more with its own pomp and glory and less with justice and learning. 

The outmoded legal and judicial system may be one of the most important reasons why we are low on the Ease of Doing Business and Competitiveness Indices. We must debate and discuss this issue far more than we do.

If any of you have thoughts on legal and judicial reform please come to Soch Bichar where all thinking people meet.
