Opposition leader Omar Ayub Khan in the National Assembly on Tuesday criticized the government for passing laws under duress, claiming that the opposition was not allowed to speak. He argued that these bills should have been discussed in the standing committees first.

Speaking on a point of order during a session chaired by Deputy Speaker Syed Mir Ghulam Mustafa Shah, the PTI leader said, “Yesterday, the law was passed with force, and the house was full. Today, the force has been removed, and the house is empty.” He also criticized the extension of the military chiefs’ tenure, stating, “It has ruined the careers of many officers.”

Omar Ayub said, “They keep talking about May 9, showing students the damage at Jinnah House. We will also show the students of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa the destruction caused by federal forces at KP House. We will show our youth how one province was attacked.”

The opposition leader further questioned, “Have our forces become like those of Hulagu Khan?” He added, “The people are suffering from inflation, yet the government is focused on passing bill after bill. This is not a government, but a regime and a mafia. They are afraid of a person sitting in jail.

He further said, “When our government was in power, GDP was at 6%. Come, take a camera and walk through the markets, ask the public if inflation has decreased.
