National Assembly Speaker Asad Qaiser on Friday asked the government to table a joint resolution in the Lower House in consultation with all opposition parties on the matter of ban imposed on Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP) and the recent violent incidents by the religious party in different parts of the country.
Responding to points of order raised by various lawmakers regarding the issue during the National Assembly session, the speaker suggested that after consensus, Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs Ali Muhammad Khan should give a joint policy statement so that a message could be delivered to the world that no compromise is possible on the respect and dignity of Holy Prophet (PBUH). “We are all ‘Aashiq-e-Rasool’ and can sacrifice our lives for the sanctity of Holy Prophet (PBUH). Being supreme institution of the country, it’s our duty to give a national message to the world,” he added.
