Maulana Abdul Ghafoor Haideri said that opposition members were barred from entering the Balochistan Assembly, adding that the attitude of the federal and subordinate governments was harming democratic values.

He said that he would bring a movement in the National Assembly and the Senate on the incidents that took place in the Assembly. He condemned the incidents that took place in the Balochistan Assembly yesterday.

The leader of the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (JUI-F) and the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) added that the government’s job was to improve the situation in parliament.
