ISLAMABAD, Jun 15, Diplomatic Star (DS): Minister of State for Information and Broadcasting Farrukh Habib on Tuesday said Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Shahid Khaqan Abbasi was the ‘architect’ of today’s rumpus in the National Assembly.
It was Abbasi, who, despite being a former prime minister, instigated the PML-N’s Members of the National Assembly (MNAs) to go for abusing the treasury benches, and resultantly the House embroiled into verbal exchanges and brawl, he said in a series of tweets.
He said Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) MNA Faheem Khan was injured in an attack by the PML-N legislators, while a budget book was thrown another PTI member Maleeka Bukhari, which hurt her eye.
It seemed that the PML-N members had no regard and respect for their women colleagues, he added.
Farrukh also posted a video of Minister of State for Climate Change Zartaj Gul, explaining ‘exactly what had happened’ in the NA.
Zartaj, in the video, said: “We have been inculcated a sense of nobility by Prime Minister Imran Khan, who always advises to exercise maximum patience and tolerance. When there is a physical brawl and women are targeted then what will be the option.
