The Constitution of 1973 is the fundamental legal document of Pakistan, adopted on April 10, 1973. It established the framework for the country's government, outlining the separation of powers among the executive, legislative, and judicial branches. The Constitution also guarantees fundamental rights to citizens, promoting democracy and rule of law. This Constitution replaced the previous Constitution of 1962 and has undergone several amendments since its inception.
