PTI MPAs await action over ‘dupatta snatching’ incident

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) lawmakers in Sindh Assembly expressed dismay on Thursday over lack of action by the Deputy Speaker Rehana Leghari against MPAs who tugged the scarf of PTI MPA Dua Bhutto during a scuffle on Monday.

Fight broke out on Monday between MPAs of PTI and PPP when PPP MPA snatched phone of PTI MPA Dua Bhutto.

"We were hoping that you, being a woman, would take due action against the snatching of a woman's dupatta during the session," Rabia Azfar Nizami told Leghari.

She added, "We wanted no inquiry; all we wanted was action from you against it, but we are utterly dismayed."
