July 11, 2021
Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) senior leader and Sindh Assembly member Firdous Shamim Naqvi has said it is unfortunate and undemocratic that there is no representation of the opposition parties in the Public Accounts Committee of the provincial assembly.
He said this as he addressed a press conference at the premises of the provincial legislature on Saturday.
Naqvi, who also previously served as the opposition leader of the Sindh Assembly during its current term, said there should have been a debate on the report of the auditor general regarding various schemes, including the establishment of trauma centres, across the province.
