💨 Abstract

Pakistan's Parliament held a brief joint session on Jan 24 to rush-pass four bills, despite opposition protests. The bills, including trade and education amendments, were approved within nine minutes. The opposition, led by Imran Khan's party, was denied the right to speak, causing disruptions. Prominent political figures including Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif attended the session. The Parliament will reconvene on Feb 12.
