Tensions flared in the National Assembly on Friday as the Pakistan Threek-e-Insaf (PTI), the opposition party, staged a protest during the oath-taking ceremony of four lawmakers elected on reserved seats. Despite the protest, the four newly elected members on reserved seats proceeded to take their oaths, administered by Speaker Sadiq. Ayub also criticised the timing, noting that on International Women's Day, unconstitutional oaths were taken, and women's reserved seats were allegedly "robbed." Speaker Sadiq countered, stating that no official orders had been received from the ECP or the Peshawar High Court on the matter. He said the Lahore High Court has not given any decision regarding not taking oath, adding that the decision of Peshawar High Court does not apply to Punjab, Sindh and Balochistan.

It needs to embrace a more cooperative approach in order to rise above its issues.
