QUETTA, July 29: National Assembly Speaker Chaudhary Amir Hussain has said that national and provincial assemblies will complete their present term.

Speaking at a press conference after the concluding session of the 15th speakers’ conference held here on Saturday, he said that performance improves only when institutions work continuously.

Senate Deputy Chairman Mir Jan Mohammad Khan Jamali, speakers and deputy speakers of the assemblies of NWFP, Balochistan, Sindh, Punjab and Azad Jammu and Kashmir were also present on the occasion.

He dispelled the impression that the National Assembly was facing any hurdle or difficulty in its functioning or legislation, and said that there was no pressure or interference in its working.
