The Senate’s Standing Committee for Rules and Procedures on Thursday summoned Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (INP) Chairman Imran Khan for hurling ‘insulting’ remarks at senators and army.
Committee Chairman Tahir Hussain Mashhadi issued the notice while presiding over a meeting at the Parliament House.
Senator Jafar Iqbal told the committee that he along with other senators had submitted a privilege motion against Imran Khan. He said that the PTI chief adopted a non-democratic behaviour by criticising the army and ‘insulting’ the senators.
Mashhadi said a House member could not insult any lawmaker. He said the PTI chairman would be given a chance to appear before the committee in 10 days and present his version.

  1. An example of very bad journalism. This is totally false news. First of all it is Senate Standing Committee on 'Rules of Procedure and Privileges' not 'Rules and Procedures'. Secondly, Senator Jafar Iqbal do requested the chair to take up the matter. However, the chairman refused saying that a privilege breach has yet not been received from Senate so they can't move against Imran Khan. He said Mr Khan would be summoned once the privilege motion is received and taken up.

  2. The person who doesn't know the meaning of Shameless can do anything . Not a big deal of this brain
