The resolution moved by the opposition MNA Zahid Hamid was not opposed by the government as agreed at the Business Advisory Committee and the House adopted it with one voice.

The House also approved to constitute an eight-member committee of the House with equal representation from both the treasury and the opposition benches to monitor progress on the issue of missing persons.

The House authorized the Speaker National Assembly to constitute the committee in consultation with the Leader of the House and the Leader of the Opposition. Zahid Hamid in the resolution had stated that it pertained to the plight of the families of the missing persons and the grave allegation against our security agencies regarding missing persons.

The resolution demanded from the government to ensure prevalence of the rule of law and to implement without further delay the observations of the Supreme Court and recommendations of the Commission of Inquiry on forced disappearances for enactment of necessary legislation to resolve the issue of missing persons and also recommendations of the Commission of inquiry on the murder of a journalist Saleem Shahzad.

Later, Opposition Leader Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan had also raised this issue to the House and said, the House owed such an action since years. This notorious practice was started in Pervez Musharraf's era. These people are Pakistanis and deserve justice according to law of the land.

When Interior Minister Rehman Malik tried to reply to the point of the Leader of the Opposition, Deputy Speaker Faisal Karim Kundi advised him to present his stance at the House committee being constituted for the purpose.
