Jammers in the Assembly
Agha Siraj Durrani – the Speaker of the Sindh Assembly, according to a news report, has ordered installation of mobile jammers in the Assembly Hall as the cell phones of the august members of the assembly keep ringing thus distracting the proceedings of the assembly. Strange, and to me such an expenditure on the jammers would be totally unwarranted and a sheer waste of the public money. For, I don’t think our honourable MPAs are that uncouth and uncivilized not to know that the cell phones are ought to be kept on ‘silent’ mode during the indoor gatherings, assemblies, lectures, prayers and similar other occasions. Why waste money? And, if at all someone doesn’t abide by such a civilized code of conduct what are the Sergeants at Arms provided to the assemblies for?
