THE PROCESS OF CONSTITUTION MAKING IN PAKISTAN FROM 1947-1954: HISTORICAL AND POLITICAL PERSPECTIVE

Abstract

Ever  since  the  establishment  of  Pakistan  in  1947, it  faced  multiple  challenges,  the  framing  of  the future  constitution  of  Pakistan  was  the  biggest  of them. The India act of  1935  with certain  modifications  became  the  interim  constitution  and  the  country  was  continuously  ruled  till  1956  constitution of Pakistan. This  research  paper  highlights  the  problems  from  inadequate  administrative  system, extreme  refugee  problems, lack  of  financial  resources, insufficient  means  of  communication   and transportation,  ethnolinguistic  problems, lack  of  trained leadership and the missing of national consensus were major issues which the newly established  independent  sovereign  state of Pakistan  faced as its early problems.
