Judgment text as reported

SUNNI ITTEHAD COUNCIL VS ELECTION COMMISSION OF PAKISTAN Part II, Chap. 1---Fundamental Rights---Progressive, and dynamic interpretation---Fundamental rights guaranteed by the Constitution, an organic instrument, are not capable of precise or permanent definition delineating their meaning and scope for all times to come---With the passage of time, changes occur in the political, social and economic conditions of the society, which requires re-evaluation of their meaning and scope in consonance with the changed conditions---Therefore, keeping in view the prevailing socioeconomic and politico-cultural values and ideals of the society, the courts construe the fundamental rights guaranteed by the Constitution with a progressive, liberal and dynamic approach---This approach ensures that the fundamental rights remain a vibrant and effective guarantee of citizens' rights, liberties and freedoms, adapting to the evolving needs and aspirations of society---With this approach, the courts expound the fundamental rights to give them life and substance that are true to the reality of the changing times.
