The House of Elders, also natively known as the Meshrano Jirga is the upper house of the bicameral national assembly of Afghanistan. It consists of an unspecified number of local dignitaries and experts appointed by provincial councils, district councils, and the president. This house forms more of an advisory role rather than a maker of law. Still, the house has some veto power.
