By: Farrukh Shabbir, Uploaded: 1st June 2012



It was expected that the budget speech would face high criticism from the opposition in National Assembly today, but in an unexpected turn of events, a fight broke out between the members of National Assembly creating a hostile environment during the speech. Aaj News reported.

The fight broke out between the members of National Assembly belonging to both Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) and Pakistan Muslim League (Nawaz) during the Budget speech of Finance Minister, Hafeez Sheikh.

During his speech, Hafeez Sheikh said that commodity prices hiked by 25% and that measures have been taken to bring that percentage under control.

He said that the present government came into power when the economy was at its weakest.
