Judgment text as reported

PAKISTAN TELEVISION CORPORATION LIMITED (PTVCL) VS APPELLATE TRIBUNAL INLAND REVENUE, ISLAMABAD BENCH, ISLAMABAD Powers--- Constitution of Pakistan has clearly set out limits for each organ of the State based on seminal principle of trichotomy of powers---Legislature makes the laws, the executives execute it while the judicial branch is entrusted with the duty to interpret it---The judicial branch has no jurisdiction to promulgate laws and, therefore, stringent rules and principles have been laid down in the context of the exercise of the power of judicial review---Burden to prove that promulgated law is invalid is on the person who challenges its vires---The court must lean in favour of upholding the legislation and law should be saved rather than destroyed---The wisdom of the legislature to promulgate a law and to achieve a particular object and purpose cannot be questioned.
