      <title>KP Assembly descends into chaos as supporters of MPs engage in fight</title>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Supporters of two lawmakers from both sides of the aisle engaged in a fight in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly on Tuesday as they did not tolerate the corruption allegations levelled by a PTI-P member against a cabinet member.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It was difficult to hear anything, Shahab Uddin of &lt;em&gt;Aaj News&lt;/em&gt; said while describing the environment inside the assembly hall.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For the last two days, PTI-Parliamentarian lawmaker from South Waziristan Iqbal Wazir and Special Assistant to the KP CM on Relief Nek Muhammad Dawar have been engaged in a brawl over the former’s corruption allegation against the latter.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;On Tuesday, supporters of Nek Muhammad sitting in the assembly gallery used foul language for Wazir and gave threats to him.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;    &lt;figure class='media  sm:w-1/3  w-full  media--right  media--embed  media--uneven'&gt;
        &lt;div class='media__item  media__item--newskitlink  '&gt;    &lt;iframe
        class="nk-iframe" 
        width="100%" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" style="height:250px;position:relative"

        sandbox="allow-same-origin allow-scripts allow-popups allow-modals allow-forms"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
        
    &lt;/figure&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This prompted a sharp reaction from the followers of Wazir. Supporters of both parliamentarians were seen getting into a brawl in the assembly hall.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The assembly sergeant and security officials tried to get them out of the hall, but it was seen to be out of control of the staff.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A heated exchange of words was also seen between the treasury and opposition when ANP lawmaker Nisar Baaz raised the point that they were not allowed to speak.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ironically, Wazir was part of the PTI in the past and held the same portfolio which Nek Muhammad now holds.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Why we are not given time to speak,” Baaz said as all lawmakers tried to pacify him and assured him that he would be given time.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;On this, KP Assembly Speaker Babar Saleem Swati adjourned the session for 10 minutes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But when the speaker got out of the hall, PTI-P’s Wazir accused Nek Muhammad and the PTI lawmaker in South Waziristan of corruption. In response, the PTI supporters in the press gallery threatened him.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Wazir tried to go towards them, but other members of the provincial assembly stopped him. Outside the hall, supporters of both assemblies engaged in a brawl.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to reports, PTI lawmakers’ supporters’ conduct in the august house has not been “appropriate”.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The assembly staff cleared all the galleries and asked all visitors to leave the hall. Wazir and Nek Muhammad have also been taken to the chambers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When such situations occurred in the past, the speaker attempts to have reconciliation between the parties fighting against each other.&lt;/p&gt;
