Aitzaz also reminded the ruling party that how Nawaz Sharif personally appeared in the Supreme Court in the Memogate case against the then President Asif Ali Zardari. "We have provided support to the government to end the prevailing crisis even in the face of strong criticism from our party workers".
He said that the statements and speeches of PTI chief Imran Khan were touching people's hearts. According to him, Imran will not be considered by masses as a loser even if he returned without achieving his pronounced objectives. People would remember him as a brave man of a vanquished army; he said adding that on the other hand Prime Minister and his team would be considered otherwise, implying that they would be known as victors of an army that suffered a major defeat. He said the gloomy faces of ministers and their body language depicted a troubled state of mind. Aitzaz asked the Prime Minister why he was continuing to protect those who had already let him down.
"I have spoken with great continuity against sit-ins with historical references; I do not want Prime Minister to fall this way in spite of serious reservation about his style of governance and arrogance," Aitzaz said and turned towards ministers' benches. He asked them: "grow up from the level student union debating societies and show some seriousness."
About LPG quota controversy, he said his wife had been doing this business and Chaudhry Nisar must be aware of the fact that LPG quota was deregulated in 2000 and it would have been cancelled by the then dictator Musharraf, if LPG quota was awarded by the government. "LPG quota is a private business," he said. He protested that he was being described as a representative of land mafia but they don't remember that as a lawyer his clients also included former Chief Justice of Pakistan Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry and Nawaz Sharif.
"I have requested the Prime Minister the other day to find out whether his people sitting in the house were stoking fire". He said that he had been in politics for the last fifty year and his family had made a lot of sacrifices in the Pakistan Movement. "I have resisted all the four dictators and did not call off lawyers' long March for restoration of former Chief Justice on the request of Kiyani," he said and added that he called off protest after the speech of the then Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani and consultations with senior lawyers Ali Ahmad Kurd and Munir Malik.
Leader of Opposition in the National Assembly Syed Khursheed Ahmed Shah demanded of the Prime Minster to ask Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan to tender an apology on the floor of the House. He said: "the Prime Minister has to decide that at least he [Chaudhry Nisar] must apologise on the floor of the house, which is a minimum punishment. We are not demanding of the Prime Minister to expel him [Nisar] from his Cabinet in this situation. But we want that this person should apologise for his statement."
Khursheed Ahmed Shah said: "honourable Prime Minster, he [Nisar] does not belong to your party. The person also misbehaved when Maulana Fazlur Rehman and Mehmood Khan Achakzai were sitting in the chamber of Prime Minister on Thursday and he later spitted venom in front of journalists when he could not contain himself."
He said that a Parliamentary Committee comprising the opposition and government members should be constituted to investigate the matter. "Why we blame others for acting like puppets when people within PML-N are doing the same. It is being said a future prime Minster is sitting in the Parliament while other is waiting outside the Parliament," he added.
The Opposition Leader said," it is not new Mr Prime Minister that traitors are in your ranks. Efforts are being made to divide the House and sabotage the efforts of this joint-sitting of Parliament. They do not want the success of the Prime Minster. Some people are sitting in the government and desperately waiting for their turn. "
He said that the opposition did not want to weaken the government. He said the prime minister must be wondering why the opposition did not boycott parliament's session even after such provocation. He then referred to "too many snakes in the grass". "Our willingness to stand by the government should not be taken as our weakness the Honourable PM," he said.
