ISLAMABAD: The National Assembly’s session was adjourned on Monday due to lack of quorum without taking up any of the agenda item.

The lack of quorum was pointed out by Pakistan Tahreek-e-Insaf (PIT) lawmaker Shireen Mazari, which led to the suspension of the proceedings for an hour.

The sitting did not resume again and the deputy speaker announced to adjourn the sitting until today (Tuesday).

The House did not take up the legislative agenda, two motions for the presentation of a Standing Committee’s reports and a statutory report.
