ISLAMABAD: Federal Defence Minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif said Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) will be given a welcome that matches its arrival in the assembly, in an apparent reference to the latter’s decision to end Parliament’s boycott.

He passed these comments while talking to media outside Parliament House today (Wednesday) when reporter had asked him how he would welcome the PTI leaders.

Khawaja Asif said that Parliament is the most supreme institution.

They [PTI] called it a fake assembly but keep on coming back to it, Asif said criticising Imran Khan lead party.

The minister said that the institutions should be strengthened by combined effort and unity.

“They (PTI) called Parliament an assembly of bandits and thieves,” he said, adding that the party’s leaders lack ‘self-respect’.
