Using the parliament for political blackmailing is negative, says Firdous

Dr. Firdous Ashiq Awan – Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Information and Broadcasting has criticized PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari for linking legislation in the parliament with his political agenda.

Dr Awan tweeted on micro blogging web site on tuesday, she said it is the fundamental responsibility of the parliament to legislate.

The special assistant said linking it with the political agenda is unparliamentarily, unconstitutional and undemocratic.
