Responding to opposition parties' criticism about Prime Minister Imran Khan not attending the parliament session on the coronavirus crisis, Information Minister Shibli Faraz has said the premier is "busy working" but will definitely come to the parliament session.

He said it should be questioned as to why "those who were making the noise" about the prime minister's attendance did not come to the session themselves.

"Why did the leader of the opposition (Shehbaz Sharif) not come? I believe people see this hypocritical attitude."
