Synopsis This book covers the revised curriculum for LL.B course on Constitutional History of Pakistan, which is a compulsory subject for graduate and post-graduate students studying for a degree in law, political science, Pakistan studies and public administration.

Since constitutional history cannot be taught in a vacuum, the author has included political history so that a new generation of students, lawyers, scholars and general readers can fully understand the impediments to constitution framing in Pakistan and the difficult course it has taken for the past sixty one years.

The second edition includes a chapter on the analysis of constitutional and political issues during the last sixty-one years. The author has updated this edition to meet the needs of students, lawyers, judges and general readers. The text retains the substance of the required syllabi and the author's candid interpretations of constitutional documents and cases.
