PESHAWAR – A scuffle erupted during the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Assembly session, leading to heated exchanges among members and the free use of kicks and punches.
According to reports, opposition members requested time to speak from the Speaker. When they were not given the opportunity, the situation escalated into a verbal confrontation, eventually leading to physical altercations.
Assembly members freely used kicks and punches during the commotion.
During this time, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s Naik Muhammad and Iqbal Wazir, a member of the PTI Parliamentarians, engaged in a fight. Both of them hail from North Waziristan.
To restore order, the Speaker suspended the session for 15 minutes and called in security personnel.
Provincial ministers approached the opposition benches to calm the members, after which the situation normalised, and the two MPs involved in the fight were escorted out of the assembly.
