Section:

(a) Constitution of Pakistan (1973)--Arts. 184 (3), 4, 15, 18, 24, 25 & 27---Constitutional petition under Art.184(3) of the Constitution of Pakistan was admitted to regular hearing to examine whether the decision of Federal Cabinet to reinstate in service 208 employees of State Life Insurance Corporation of Pakistan, dismissed in the year 1990 by the then Caretaker Cabinet, violated any of the fundamental rights of the employees of the Corporation guaranteed under the Constitution. (b) Constitution of Pakistan (1973)--- ----Art. 184 (3)---Exercise of jurisdiction under Art. 184(3) of the Constitution of Supreme Court---Essentials.

It is, therefore, quite clear that two essential jurisdictional ingredients must be present in a case before it is taken up by Supreme Court in exercise of its jurisdiction under Article 184(3) of the Constitution. Firstly, the case must involve decision on an issue in which the public-at-large is interested and, secondly; the case also relates to the enforcement/violation of any of the fundamental rights mentioned in Chapter 1, Part 11 of the Constitution, namely Articles 8 to 28. (c) Constitution of Pakistan (1973)--- ----Arts. 184(3), 4 & 5---Articles 4 & 5 of the Constitution which do not fall in Chap. 1, Part II of the Constitution, violation thereof cannot attract the jurisdiction of Supreme Court under Art. 184(3) of the Constitution. (d) Constitution of Pakistan (1973)--- ----Art. 184(3)---Constitutional petition to Supreme Court ---Maintainability--­Where the petitioners failed to establish that any of the fundamental right under Chap. I of Part 11 of the Constitution had been violated by the impugned order of the Federal Government, jurisdiction of Supreme Court under Art. 184(3) of the Constitution of Pakistan was not attracted.
