LAHORE, March 19: Minister for Agriculture Arshad Khan Lodhi will answer questions about his department in the Friday session of the Punjab Assembly.

After the Question-Hour, the house will discuss the law and order situation in the province.

PML(N) parliamentary party leader Rana Sanaullah Khan, who was recently kidnapped and tortured by what he calls intelligence agencies, will participate in the debate.

It is not clear whether the conduct of any federal agency can be brought under discussion in a provincial assembly.

In case the session is not prorogued on Friday, it will reconvene on Monday to debate the working of the transport department.
