ISLAMABAD:Minister of State for Maritime Affairs, Chaudhry Jaffar Iqbal Wednesday said incidents of shoe throwing on politicians were increased due to the use of unparliamentary language against political opponents.
All political parties should refrain to use derogatory language against political opponents, he said talking to PTV.
The minister said the leadership of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) had always tolerated criticism and abusive language.
He urged political parties to promote positive politics in the country instead of creating chaos and agitation.
The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) government had launched a number of welfare projects and it would achieve success in the general elections on basis of performance and prudent policies, he added.
Replying to a question, he welcomed the newly-elected deputy chairman and chairman Senate and expressed hope that they would work for strengthening democracy and parliament.
