ISLAMABAD: The National Assembly completed three years with dismal attendance from leading politicians including Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan.
Records available with Geo News show that out of 98 sittings so far, the prime minister has only attended nine.
It seemed as if the PTI chief Imran Khan was even busier than the prime minister. He was present in only five sittings.
Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly Syed Khursheed Shah attended 71 sittings.
Attendance of women parliamentarians turned out to be better than their male counterparts. Jamiat Ulema Islami - Fazl (JUI-F) parliamentarian Alia Kamran and Pakhtunkhwa Milli Awami Party (PkMAP) parliamentarian Naseema Hafeez had 100 percent attendance.
