KARACHI (92 News) - Sindh Assembly on Tuesday failed to present before the House a resolution condemning Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) chief Altaf Hussain's remarks against the army and calling for legal action against him. As per reports, the three opposition parties in the House, PTI, Functional League and the PML-N decided to table the resolution upon which the speaker forbade them to do so on account of being out of turn. The opposition members protested against this decision. Later, Sindh Educaiton Minister Nisar Khoro's speech was interrupted by Functional League members upon which Nisar got angry. "The PPP is being targetted," he said. "The division of Sindh will not be allowed at any cost."  The opposition members chanted slogans against the minister's speech. The opposition parties decided to table the resolution in the coming days once again.
