The treasury members broke the chairs and mike of deputy speaker. Khayal Kastro occupied the speaker chair.

Punjab Assembly security continued stopping the treasury members from creating ruckus who did not stop. Police was called in the house. Police took deputy speaker Punjab Assembly out from the assembly.

Reacting to entry of police in the house, ruling coalition candidate for CM Punjab Chaudhry Pervez Elahi said police is who to enter into the house. I will award punishment of one month to IG Police. I will summon IG Police Punjab in the house.

Some members from combined opposition said police is called when one faces life threat. Had Pervez Elahi so much democratic then he could move forward and stop the entire situation.

The opposition members said treasury members followed the pre-conceived plan after seeing their defeat. The deputy speaker PA had to suspend the proceedings of PA due to this situation.
