Opposition parties in Sindh Assembly stage walkout
KARACHI: Opposition parties in Sindh Assembly including the Muttahida Qaumi Movement, the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz and the Pakistan Muslim League-Functional staged a walk-out after they were not allowed to present Sindh Local Government amendment bill.
The opposition members held a parallel session of the provincial legislature outside the building and made fiery speeches against the government.
The uproar started after Speaker Agha Siraj Durrani didn't allow PML-N member Irfanullah Khan Marwat to speak. Government and opposition MPAs exchanged heated words before the latter staged walk-out.
Speaking outside the assembly, MQM leader Faisal Sabzwari said that setting aside opposition agenda, the government called the Friday session for its own agenda.
