Which Prime Minister of Pakistan signed the 13th Constitutional Amendment, effectively restoring the parliamentary powers that were curtailed by the 8th Amendment?
✓ Correct Answer: Option B
The 13th Constitutional Amendment, passed in 1997 during Nawaz Sharif's second tenure, removed Article 58(2)(b) of the Constitution, which had given the President discretionary power to dissolve the National Assembly and dismiss the Prime Minister. This restored significant parliamentary authority.
