LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) leader Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain on Wednesday asked members of the Punjab Assembly (MPAs) to join proceedings at Punjab Assembly building rather than going to Aiwan-e-Iqbal, where the Punjab government has summoned a parallel session.

In a statement issued today, Chaudhry Shujaat who is supporting Shehbaz Sharif-led federal government lamented that the session was convened at Aiwan-e-Iqbal as the Punjab government was planning to limit the powers of the assembly.

“The MPAs should attend the proceedings at the Punjab Assembly building and safeguard their powers,” he said.

He lamented that some people are playing with the country and there is a concern that the assembly could become a tool in the hands of such people.
