ISLAMABAD, July 8: The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz and Muttahida Qaumi Movement on Friday acted in unison to requisition sessions of both houses of the parliament.

The two requisitions, one submitted to the Senate Secretariat and the other to NA Secretariat, say the two parties want to discuss in parliament the ongoing violence in Karachi, non-implementation by the executive of the Supreme Court orders and “massive rigging and misuse of government resources” during the recent AJK elections.

The move came two days after top leaders of the PML-N and MQM resolved to set aside their bitter history and work as a combined opposition in parliament.—Staff Reporter
