The maiden session of the assembly after the Feb 8 elections had to begin at 11 am but commenced after a delay of over an hour due to the commotion caused by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) workers in the legislature,
As reported, the elected lawmakers were facing difficulty in entering the assembly hall as multiple PTI workers tried entering the floor and even threw “lota” and a shoe at Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz’s (PML-N) Sobia Shahid.
