False allegations: Pir Mazharul Haq files privilege motion against Marvi Rashdi
The issue sparked on April 27, when Rashdi spoke in the assembly on the appointment. At the time, Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) legislators lashed out at Rashdi for her remarks. Haq is also the PPP parliamentary leader in the Sindh Assembly.
Earlier in the day, PML-F's parliamentary leader in the Sindh Assembly Jam Madad Ali apologised for any hurt caused to Pir Mazharul Haq after PML-F MPA Rashdi raised the issue of Haq's wife but Haq asked that Rashdi apologise as well.
PML-F's Jam Madad Ali also asked that if the PPP did not want to deal with the PML-F anymore – "We know you don't like us" – they should ask party co-chairperson and President Asif Ali Zardari to ask PML-F head Pir Pagaro VIII to abandon the policy of reconciliation.
He also condemned the criticism directed by Sindh Information Minister Shazia Marri for the late Pir Pagaro VII after the assembly session on Friday.

@ Logic Europe its not about being petty, its about merit. As Rashdi pointed out she was given a double promotion. You know why democracy fails and Army take over Pakistan? It's because compared to our civil system army works on more merit based system. I am not advocating for dictatorship in Pakistan, I never have or will but we need to improve the democratic system and people should be given positions based on their merit and not on their family background.
@ Logic Europe
He is a minister by name, a crook by trade, Please enlighten us as to what he has done in the past 4 years to improve the literacy rate?
@ tahir amjad yes he is minister and if wife has qualification why not when will people stop being petty ??
@ logic europe
because pir sahb is great,with dignity and integrity,honest and loyal......................he is education minister also ...hence has all the rights to appoint his second half as secratory education.this is enough qualification lols.
pir sahab is a great man he has dignity and integrity he is honest and loyal he will never do anything wrong
Pir Mazharul Haq:
You are one of the persons among many who take refuge in London after every downfall of PPP government and when the dust settle down, you come back to Karachi and file your nomination papers and then become Minister in the Sindh government.
Why are you challenging Marvi Rashdi. Is she wrong?
Is this also wrong that your wife was not from the Foreign Service and despite the fact she was posted at Pakistan's High Commission in London?
How much benefit you and your family would like to have from Pakistan?
Is there any limit or not?
