ISLAMABAD: MNA Nabeel Gabol, belonging to the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM), brought forward the demand for the imposition of emergency in the country and termed those who talked of negotiating with the Taliban as 'fools' during a meeting of the National Assembly's Standing Committee on Interior on Wednesday, DawnNews reported.

"On one hand talks are being held whereas on the other hand bodies were being sent," he further said.

Meanwhile, an intense argument took place between Nabeel Gabol, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PMLN)'s Tehmina Doltana and Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP)'s Yousuf Talpur in National assembly.

Doltana said that Gabol's leader was living outside the country to which he replied that her leader had also left the country.

The Chairman of the National Assembly's Standing Committee on Interior, Rana Shamim Ahmad Khan, said that at the moment there was no need of the imposition of an emergency or a Marshall law in the country.

The Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) also opposed Nabeel Gabol's demand for an emergency in the country.
