VIDEO: PTI, PML-N leaders clash on live TV show

While heated arguments between opposing political parties on TV programmes are not something uncommon, physical altercations though are a rare sight.

In one such deplorable happening, during a live national TV channel programme, Naeem Haider Panjutha of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) and Ikhtiar Wali Khan of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) indulged into a heated argument and made serious allegations on each other, resulting in a scuffle.

The video of their wrestling is doing rounds on social media platforms, wherein Khan can be seen grabbing Panjutha from shoulder and pushing him after which the latter also rose up from his seat starting the brawl. Both the politicos rained punches and kicks on each other before they were separated.

While they fought, the programme host Fiza Khan kept requesting them to stop it then members of the programme team intervened to stop the fight.

It should be noted that this is not the first time that leaders of these two rival parites fought as relations between the PTI and PML-N have remained bitter for several years now.

A physical altercation took place between PML-N Senator Dr Afnan Ullah Khan and PTI MNA Sher Afzal Marwat more than a year back. PTI’s late Naeemul Haq and PML-N’s Daniyal Aziz also once exchanged blows on a TV show.
