Pakistan's parliament has passed several significant legislative amendments, including extending the tenure for the heads of the armed forces from three to five years, a move opposed by Imran Khan's party amidst allegations of political maneuvering by the military. Additionally, the number of judges in Pakistan's Supreme Court has been increased from 16 to 34 to address a backlog of cases. These legislative changes are part of an effort to enhance stability and efficiency in Pakistan's governance and judiciary. Meanwhile, an unrelated amendment in India involves new Higher Service Rules in Uttar Pradesh allowing teachers in aided degree colleges to request a transfer after three years, aimed at improving work-life balance.
