He thanked the former and current Chief Justice of the Islamabad High Court for taking decisions within the legal framework for lawyers.
The federal minister said that now with the appointment of judges from Balochistan and Sindh in the Islamabad High Court, inter-provincial harmony has been promoted, which is welcome for the judicial system.
