Nisar demands investigation into verbal war
Nisar calls for house committee to investigate "MQM's use of derogatory language" outside parliament house.
ISLAMABAD:
Opposition leader, Chaudry Nisar Ali on Friday demanded a house committee to investigate MQM's use of derogatory language outside the parliament house.
He was addressing the National Assembly during a session on Friday.
The war of words between the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) took an ugly turn on Wednesday, with politicians from both sides making personal attacks on one another.
Expressing his disapproval, Nisar asked the media not to air such language. The opposition leader said that a line should be drawn between abusive language and criticism. Waseem Akhtar from the MQM made a similar demand. Akhtar also apologised for using derogatory remarks against PML-N chief Nawaz Sharif.
Speaking on the same issue, Gilani said parliamentarians should show responsibility while speaking at any forum, adding that losing one's temper is against the political attitude. “Politics is all about patience,” he said.
Gilani said the nation has put responsibility on the shoulders of politicians and they should prove their commitment.
