Sumaira FH Published December 19, 2018 | 06:06 PM
Senate Deputy Chairman Saleem Mandviwalla Wednesday expressed his indignation over the absence of State Minister for Interior Shehryar Afridi to reply the question of Senators during question hour.
Deputy chairman directed State Minister for Parliamentary Affairs Ali Muhammad Khan to convey the cabinet his message to respect the House, ensure their presence in the House during the course of proceedings. A minister must inform the chairman about his engagements that he could not come to attend the session due to prior engagements.
State Minister for Interior Shehryar Afridi arrived after some time and said that he had already informed the Senate Secretariat about his prior engagements. He will attend the House proceedings a bit late.
Senate Deputy Chairman Saleem Mandivawalla said Senate Secretariat did not receive any formal request from Shehryar Afridi about his late coming in the Senate. He asked the minister to be more cautious in future.
