Chief Justice Syed Refaat Ahmed yesterday renewed his commitment to implement meaningful reforms in the judiciary.

"I reaffirm my staunch resolve to implement meaningful reforms and build a judiciary that commands the confidence of the public," he said addressing a discussion on Supreme Court Day 2024.

The Chief Justice said he declared a reform roadmap on September 21, laying out a blueprint for institutional reform aimed at restoring public trust, ensuring efficiency, and upholding judicial independence.

He said, "A judiciary that lacks administrative and financial independence cannot remain impartial, nor can it deliver justice with the swiftness that society demands."
