PTI MNAs offered Rs200mn for voting on amendments: Asad Qaiser

Peshawar: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader and former Speaker of National Assembly Asad Qaiser revealed that Rs200 million have been offered to Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Members of National Assembly (MNAs) regarding constitutional amendments.

Talking to the media in Peshawar, Asad Qaiser said that the constitutional amendments are being brought on October 17 or 18. The fascist government should tell how can they legislate forcefully.

He revealed that their MLAs are being pressured and offered Rs200 million but none will budge.

The former speaker stated that they will not allow to attack the judiciary, in this regard all bar associations should take it into confidence.

Asad Qaiser further said that it is the privilege of the provincial government to sit with Mohsin Naqvi. The resolution of conflicts is not in violence but in negotiations, we have become so weak that everything has to be done with guns and force.

He added that closing Khyber Pakhtunkhwa House in Islamabad is very sad. The province and the people are not being given their rights while the promises made to the people of the tribal districts have not been fulfilled so far.
