The outgoing Senators in the Upper House on Wednesday stressed upon strengthening democracy for country’s prosperous future.

Deputy Chairman Senate Mirza Muhammad Afridi accepted the resolution from senator MohmmadIshaq Dar Leader of the House and Senator Dr. ShahzadWaseem, Leader of the Opposition, who moved the resolution under Rule 263 of the Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business in the Senate, 2012, that the requirement of Rule 41 of the said Rules regarding question hour be dispensed with for remaining sittings of the current session.

Senator Professor Dr. MaharTajRoghani in her farewell speech appreciated the Chairman Senate SadiqSanjrani and Deputy Chairman Senate MirzaAfridi for smooth conduct of senate sessions.

She suggested that the oath of the senators should not be mandatory for senators because they don’t justify it with their acts when coming into power.

Senator MaharTaj said that, she did her best in her tenure as senator but still feel depressed for not contributing enough in the development of the country.

She also suggested that the bills passed by the Senate should not be sent to the National Assembly for further approval because the Senate has the status of upper house, however the bills passed by the National Assembly must come to the Senate for approval.

Senator MoulaBuxChandio in his farewell speech said that Pakistan has to be run by politicians therefore politicians must believe in dialogue and talk to each other in country’s best interest.
