At the outset of the National Assembly session, PTI MNA Omar Ayub said that his speech as the leader of the opposition yesterday was not live-streamed and was censored.

Ayub claimed his entire speech was “based on facts”, adding “We pointed out again and again — you can check your record — that there was no live feed [and] they used to change it.”

Referring to PM Shehbaz Sharif’s speech after being elected as the prime minister, Ayub said, “His speech was shown live and mine was interrupted again and again.”

He said he would move a privilege motion against it.
