LAHORE: The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government and the opposition alliance are likely to achieve a consensus on passing an amendment to grant authority to the speaker of the Punjab Assembly to give production orders of any lawmaker of the house.

On Monday, the assembly members are expected to examine the amendment bill before its approval.

Furthermore, the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) has decided to file an application with the speaker, seeking production of Khawaja Salman Rafique in the assembly.

Rafique, the brother of Khawaja Saad Rafique, has been detained by the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) for an investigation into the Paragon city scam.
