According to Geo News, the lawmakers belonging to the opposition benches protested loudly, thumped their desks and chanted slogans in what was characterised by the treasury benches as a bid to hamper Minister for Law Farogh Naseem from reading out the contents of the bill. Speaker Asad Qaiser eventually called for a recess when assembly proceedings became difficult to continue, after which the session was conducted by Deputy Speaker Qasim Suri.
