Shahbaz said that yesterday’s proceedings in NA were one of Pakistan’s “darkest days”, adding that he could not repeat what the members of the Minister of Finance said.

“Mr. Speaker, you are responsible for maintaining order and preventing such incidents from happening […] Even today, they have not stopped,” he said.

As the riot apparently showed no signs of stopping, the speaker postponed the day’s meeting.

“Until we reach a consensus on how we hope to proceed, we will not resume the meeting today,” he said.

The government, the opposition have reached an agreement to allow NA to operate “normally”

Earlier in the day, Defense Minister Pervez Hatak announced that the government and opposition parties had reached an agreement to manage the National Assembly in an “orderly” manner.

Accompanied by Federal Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry, Khattak stated at a press conference that NA Speaker Asad Qaiser has held meetings with leaders of PTI, PPP and PML-N to discuss the situation.

Hatak regretted that the commotion in the parliament was not a good sign of the Constitution and democracy, and condemned the unfortunate incident in the House of Representatives.

“Maintaining order in the House of Representatives is the responsibility of the opposition party and the government. We must respect each other.”
