Summary PPP MPAs staged protest on floor of Punjab Assembly on issue of development funds.
When the assembly session started, opposition leader Raja Riaz stood up and said that the Chief Minister had promised that development funds would also be released for PPP MPAs.Law Minister Rana Sanaullah said that technically the MPAs of PPP should also been accommodated, but the PPP MPAs have been allocated Rs 70 million by the federal government on orders from the Prime Minister. He said not just that, the MPAs have also been allowed licenses of prohibited bores so that they could take the law in their hand.This irritated the PPP MPAs, who started shouting ‘take away Law Minister’, ‘bring in Chief Minister’.Later, the session was adjourned till 9am tomorrow (Friday) due to demise of MPA Amir Hayat Rokhri.
