ISLAMABAD: Chairman Pakistan People’s Party Bilawal Bhutto Zardari called on Shehbaz Sharif at the Parliament House, ARY News reported on Wednesday.

“I have visited Shehbaz to express solidarity with him. We have also discussed the future political strategy and will jointly act on it,” Bilawal added.

National Assembly Speaker Asad Qaiser has banned the entry of seven lawmakers into the Parliament House over the use of foul language and rumpus during the budget speech of Opposition Leader Shehbaz Sharif yesterday.

The order issued by the National Assembly Speaker stated that, on 14th and 15th June 2021 during the speech of the Leader of the Opposition and PML-N chairman Shehbaz Sharif on the budget 2021-22, the conduct of seven lawmakers was grossly disorderly as they violated the rules despite the directions by the chair.
