Punjab's political crisis intensified Tuesday as security personnel denied entry to Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah and Special Assistant to Prime Minister Attaullah Tarar into the Punjab Assembly.
The police contingent that reached the legislative, along with the security officials refused to open the parking gate, barring the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leaders from entering. Despite the police and assembly staff's attempt to stop several vehicles, the PML-N MPAs forced opened the parking lot's gate.
Speaking on the occasion, Tarar said that they have been told that the federal ministers will not be allowed to enter Punjab Assembly.
"How can they stop the ministers from entering the assembly?" questioned the SAPM.
He said that Sanaullah including other leaders will come inside the assembly.
Meanwhile, the interior minister said during a press conference flanked by other party leaders that the security agencies were also told to not let them enter the assembly, however, they refused to follow the "illegal" orders.
"The IG Punjab was also asked to prevent us from entering but he refused to implement the orders," said the PML-N leader, adding that they are using these tactics because they are aware that they do not have the numbers for the vote of confidence.
The interior minister said that this move to stop the members from entering the assembly will be "unconstitutional and illegal". He added that the Punjab CM will have to take a vote of confidence.
The PML-N leader warned that the governor rule could also be implemented in this situation.
