ISLAMABAD: The controversial “Go Nawaz Go” slogan found its way into the upper echelons of the government as it led to a brawl between PML-N and PTI leaders during a Senate Standing Committee meeting on Tuesday.

Taking a jab at Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) MNAs Hamidul Haq and Saleemur Rehman for attending the session despite having submitted resignations to the National Assembly speaker, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leaders light-heartedly chanted “Come Imran Come.”

To this, Haq responded with the viral chant “Go Nawaz Go,” and as the exchange of slogans continued, Haq is said to have punched PML-N’s Sarzameen Khan, according to members present in the meeting.

According to sources, Sarzameen was injured in the altercation. However, talking to The Express Tribune, the minister denied the reports and claimed he was the one who punched Haq, who fell to the floor after the beating.

The fight ended after female members of the committee intervened. The meeting was postponed without concluding the proceedings, a member of the committee told The Express Tribune.

“We intervened to restore order and asked the chairman of the committee to put a stop to such behavior,” she added.

While talking to The Express Tribune, Haq admitted punching the PML-N member, saying “I punched Sarzameen when he was spoke against PTI female workers participating in the dharna in Islamabad.”

Haq added that he also received minor bruises during the scuffle.

However, both MNAs admitted that their actions were against parliamentary norms and they were ready to sit together to clarify misunderstandings.

The Senate Standing committee meeting on communications was called to discuss issues regarding ongoing work on the Lyari Expressway. Muttahida Qaumi Movement MNA Sufyan Yousaf was presiding the meeting, during which officials of National Highway Authority were meant to brief the lawmakers.

Obviously the committee members will say the lone MNA started it just like little children. Arif Alvi claims the opposite happened. This shouldn't have happened in any case.

Oh come on, he was alone from PTI in the committee, he punched N-League guy and walked away? Bitch please.

Rumors are, its exactly the opposite to what N-League guys are claiming. They have beaten PTI MNA and then accused him instead.
