Judgment text as reported

FAHAD AKRAM BHATTI VS FEDERATION OF PAKISTAN Maxim"ut res magis valeat quam pereat"---Meaning and scope---It is better for a thing to have effect than to be made void, or it is better to validate a thing than to invalidate it---The Court should, in so far as possible, avoid that construction which may ascribe or attribute unreasonableness to the will of legislature and while moving into the task of interpretation of any law or provision, the predominant objective should be that the law survives and the presumption, if any, must be in favour of its constitutionality---The Court should not adopt such interpretation which renders the statute or any of its provisions inoperative or unworkable.
