Summary Shah Mehmood Qureshi says this isn't the first time Asif has used bad language in the Assembly

ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leaders have demanded a befitting response to Minister for Water and Power Khawaja Asif over his indecent remarks towards PTI Member of National Assembly (MNA) Shireen Mazari during the formal proceedings of the National Assembly’s session, reported Dunya News on Wednesday.

Shireen Mazari termed Khawaja Asif as ‘ill-manered’ over his remarks. PTI spokesperson Naeemul Haque said that Khawaja Asif should be hanged upside down over such inappropriate remarks and needs to be hit with shoes “twenty-five times in the morning and twenty-five times in the evening”.

However, PTI leader Asad Umar stated that this very punishment recommended by Naeem will not prove to be befitting and recommended that the number of strikes should be increased to a hundred as the federal minister has no manners regarding how to speak in the Assembly.

Shah Mehmood Qureshi stated that Asif is under pressure as the result of case regarding rigging in his constituency in the general elections is going to be announced soon. He added that this is not the first time Asif has used such language in the Assembly.
