Summary Opposition leader had a tough opening day in the Senate.
Maulana Ghafoor Haideri began his maiden speech as opposition leader when PML-N and JI Senators began raising slogans. Raja Zafarul Haq said that Maulana Ghafoor’s election as an opposition leader rather than Ishaq Daar would have negative impact on democracy. Zafer Ali Shah termed Maulana Haideri’s election as opposition leader a ‘parliamentary terrorism’.One the other hand, ANP walked out from the Senate against an attempt to abduct a journalist in Karachi as well as uncivilized attitude of members of People’s Party particularly in Sindh Assembly. The session was adjourned until tomorrow at 10:30am.
