ISLAMABAD: Federal Minister for Information Fawad Chaudhry on Friday said that he disagreed with the resolution, filed by some members of the treasury benches against offering protest prayer by opposition members in front of Speaker’s podium.
He said that politicians should realize that using political cards for politics always boomeranged.
The PTI members Ali Khan Jadoon and Muhammad Ibrahim Khan in their resolution had said the way the opposition members led by the JUI-F parliamentarian offered prayer was against directives of Almighty Allah and Sunnah of the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him).
The resolution said the opposition members were pointed out that they were not offering prayers in right direction of Qibla, but they ignored the advice.
