India will not invite Prime Ministe
r Imran Khan to Thursday&
#8217;s swearing-in ceremony of Narendra Modi, who starts his second term as India&
#8217;s prime minister, two sources in the foreign ministry said, suggesting that any early warming in ties between the nuclear-armed neighbours is unlikely.
The PML-N leader said PTI leader Jahangir Tareen has shares in the channel that aired the video clip involving the NAB chairman. Terming the controversy an attempt to dent the NAB chairman&
#8217;s credibility, he urged the NA speaker to constitute a
parliamentary committee to probe into the affair.
Talking about the financial issues
of the country, he said the team handling the economic situation
of the country has nothing to do with the
parliament. “Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government has taken finance adviser on lease,” he said.
Meanwhile, the National Assembly adopted a motion authorising the speaker to nominate 15 members
of the Lower House for the
parliamentary committee to protect minorities from forced conversions. The speaker has also been authorised to make changes in th
e composition
of the committee as and when required.
Later, the speaker adjourned the session till 2pm till Tuesday (today).
