Chaos erupted in the Punjab Assembly on Thursday after a Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz legislator's derogatory remarks against the PPP and MQM.
The Punjab Assembly session was called upon the request of the Opposition to debate the formation of new provinces.
The uproar started when MPA Ali Haider Niazi criticised the opposition, calling them 'traitors'. Niazi claimed that a female MPA struck him from behind, after which he proceeded to exchange harsh words with PPP MPA Fauzia Behram.
It is unclear who assaulted him.
