Sikh Marriage Bill submitted to Punjab PA

LAHORE: Punjab Assembly session on Friday once again failed to complete its agenda and remained unable to meet the quorum. The quorum was pointed out by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf legislator Dr Murad Raas on which chief whip of PML-N, Rana Arshed criticised the Opposition.

Rana Arshed stated that it had been decided in the Business Advisory Committee meeting that quorum wouldn’t be pointed out in the question-hour session but it seemed that Opposition was on a different agenda. The only business which took place on Friday was laying of the report related to the Sikh Marriage Bill by PML-N MPA Ramesh Singh Arora. The Bill would be the part of agenda next week. Speaker Rana Muhammad Iqbal Khan adjourned the proceedings until Monday. Dr Nausheen, PTI legislator, submitted a call attention notice over the incident related to a death of citizen in the Sabzazar area due to kite twine.
