Article 184 (3) Of Constitutional Of Pakistan: Remedy Or Judicial Activism?

Abstract

This paper explores the role of Article 184(3) in Pakistan's Constitution, examining its dual function as a constitutional remedy and a potential tool for judicial activism. Through historical analysis, case studies, and comparative perspectives, the study assesses how Article 184(3) has been used to uphold constitutional rights and address systemic inequities. It discusses the debates around judicial activism, constitutional interpretation, and the balance of power between the judiciary and other branches of government. The paper also identifies challenges associated with Article 184(3), including concerns about judicial overreach and accountability. By analyzing key cases and academic discourse, the study contributes to ongoing discussions about constitutional governance, the separation of powers, and the judiciary's evolving role in Pakistan's legal landscape, offering insights and recommendations for future policy and legal reforms.
