Govt 'like thieves' utilized Namaz time to pass NAB supplementary bill via rigging: Shehbaz
Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly Shehbaz Sharif on Friday lambasted at the government for using Jummah namaz time to get the National Accountability Amendment Bill 2021 passed from the House.

In a series of tweets shared by PML-N, the party's president was quoted as saying: "Approval of NAB supplementary bill after bulldozing legislation in the joint sitting of Parliament is open malice."
Shehbaz said the government, "like thieves made use of namaz time and passed the NAB supplementary bill via rigging".

پارلیمنٹ کے مشترکہ اجلاس میں قانون سازی بلڈوز کرنے کے بعد نیب سپلیمنٹری بل کی منظوری کھلی بدنیتی اور دھکا شاہی ہے
"Even namaz time was not spared for rigging. Is this the democracy and transparency [you claim to uphold]?" he asked.
"Getting the NAB bill approved by introducing a supplementary agenda is a fascist move by a fascist government," he added.
جمعے کی نماز کے وقت چوروں کی طرح نیب سپلیمنٹری بل دھاندلی سے منظور کرایا گیا

نماز کے وقت کو بھی دھاندلی کے لئے استعمال کیاگیا ، یہ ہے جمہوریت اور شفافیت؟
سپلیمنٹری ایجنڈا لاکر نیب بل منظور کرانا فسطائی حکومت کا فسطائی اقدام ہے
Shahbaz said the government's "dictatorial traditions have turned Parliament into an arena, which is regrettable and reprehensible".
"This is not legislation, it is a terrible joke played with Parliament, Constitution and the people," he said.
