The MMA lawmaker Syed Abdul Rasheed was presenting a privilege motion against PTI's opposition leader Firdous Shamim Naqvi for passing “derogatory” remarks against two opposition legislators: one Rasheed himself and the other of the Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP). The motion had criticised Naqvi for dubbing two lawmakers of practically becoming the “lap children” of the ruling Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) who should be moved to the treasury benches as they no longer represented the opposition any more. As Rasheed began to speak on his privilege motion, other opposition legislators tried to scuffle and physically obstruct him from presenting the motion. As the MMA lawmaker was surrounded and harassed by the opposition legislators, the PPP MPAs rushed to protect and let him speak on his privilege motion.
