Minister for Communication Maulana Asad Mahmood says today’s vote of confidence shows that the entire National Assembly is standing behind the Prime Minister and nobody can send him home.

He said this while resuming discussion on the issue of releasing 21 billion rupees to the Election Commission of Pakistan to hold elections in Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa as desired by the Supreme Court.

Maulana Asad Mahmood said this assembly will complete its constitutional tenure and no compromise will be made in this regard.

Balochistan National Party Chief Sardar Akhtar Jan Mengal said every individual and institutions should abide by the Constitution in letter and spirit. He said those, who violated the Constitution, should be brought to justice. He said we should learn from the mistakes of subverting the Constitution committed in the past. He said the country was dismembered by not following the Constitution.

PML-N leader Javed Latif said no one will be allowed to undermine supremacy of the Constitution. He said negative activities of some individuals sitting in various institutions need to be checked. He opposed the suggestion of holding any talks with Imran Khan unless he seeks apology from the Parliament.

Muhammad Saleh of PTI urged the government to provide relief to the people in the wake of rising inflation in the country.

Abdul Qadir Mandokhel said the Parliament will have to stand to protect its sovereignty and independence.

The House has been adjourned to meet again on Friday at 11:00 am.
