Punjab Assembly Speaker Malik Ahmed Khan has urged political parties who have formed governments to “make use of their diversity and not just continue with political instability.”

If this continues, education, health and the economy will suffer, the PML-N leader said while speaking at Punjab University.

He said there are currently two divisions in politics; one that wants to come together to discuss the country’s issues and move forward, and one which wants to wreak havoc in the country.

In an apparent reference to the PTI, he said: “They think you should be doing arson, setting the country’s installations on fire, even if they’re military installations, and then if the law of the land takes its course, they get agitated and spread further anarchy.”
