Summary: Art. 199 Constitution of Pakistan, 1973.Criminal Procedure Code, 1898. Power of review ? No provision exist in the Code for review. .

Summary: Lastly learned counsel for the petitioners relied upon Section 15 of the PakistanEnvironmental Protection Act, 1997 in terms whereof the person who operates ordrive a motor vehicle from which polluted air or noise are being emitted in anamount, concentration or level which is in excess of National Environmental QualityStandards or where applicable the standard established under clause (g) of subsection1 of Section 6 ibid are subjected. Learned Counsel?s assertion that by constant use ofpetrol and diesel such standard could not be achieved, is far from reality. This Section of Environmental Protection Act, 1997 would turn nothing in favour of thepetitioners as the said Section would still be in operation and would continue to causeits effect despite use of petrol driven vehicles. Pakistan is not the only country wherepetrol and diesel vehicles ply. In most of the countries petrol/diesel cars are plyingand those countries are maintaining better environment. We are pained to observethat in Pakistan environmental pollution caused by cars/vehicles, using either petrol,diesel or CNG, is a serious issue, which needs to be addressed by EnvironmentalProtection Authority under the Act 1997. Thus the responsibility of the authorityunder Pakistan Environmental Protection Act, 1997 would not come to an end byvirtue of conversion of petrol cars into CNG as the pollution by way of smoke and byway of noise could still be made by CNG fitted cars.40. In view of the aforesaid findings/discussion we are therefore of the view thatno case for discrimination is made out by the petitioners.

Summary: The main issue revolved around the appointment of an Acting Vice Chancellor and the legality of his actions. The court noted that the post of Acting Vice Chancellor is a temporary arrangement during the absence or vacancy of the Vice Chancellor's position, and its powers should be defined clearly for a specific period by the university's Board. The court found that the appointment of the Acting Vice Chancellor was not made following the prescribed procedure and rules provided under the University of Wah Act, 2009. As a result, the court allowed one of the writ petitions, declaring the appointment of the Acting Vice Chancellor as unlawful. The court directed the concerned authority to follow the prescribed procedure and appoint a Vice Chancellor for the University without further delay.

Summary: Judgement on allowance of house rent for civil servants --- the case discusses the issue of house rent allowance for married civil servants in Pakistan and its alignment with Islamic principles and the Constitution. It emphasizes that both spouses, when working as civil servants, should be entitled to their individual house rent allowances, just as they are entitled to other benefits independently. The text argues that the current policy of deducting house rent allowance for one of the spouses when both are civil servants is in violation of Islamic principles and constitutional rights.The court ruling, as presented in the text, declares the existing policy void and orders the federal and provincial governments, as well as autonomous bodies and institutions, to amend their rules to align with Islamic principles by ensuring that both spouses receive their individual house rent allowances. The court, however, clarifies that it cannot grant relief in personam, and those seeking individual remedies must approach the appropriate forum.
