PML-N Senator Ishaq Dar has expressed his dismay at the ruckus witnessed in the National Assembly in recent days and urged political parties to work towards “reconciliation”.

Speaking in the Senate, he said, “Coming to the recent whatever has been happening for the last few weeks, this should be handled.

“A symbolic protest is fine but by doing it all the time, the message being sent to the world is not good.

“You have seen what happened in the National Assembly, but this House has its own sanctity, symbolism [and] position, which warrants that even if we have to protest, we have to do so within the parliamentary limits, with thoughtfulness and consideration.”

Stating that he was a “big believer of reconciliation”, he recalled PM Shehbaz Sharif’s call for national reconciliation.
