ISLAMABAD: Speaker National Assembly (NA) has accorded approval to open the record of in-camera debate of parliament held during Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto regime over issue of declaring Ahmadiyya non Muslim minority.
NA secretariat sources told parliament’s closed door session lasted one month over declaring Ahmadiyya Non Muslim minority in 1974 during Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto rule. Keeping in view the sensitivity of the matter, all the record about debate and proceedings was sealed and handed over to the then NA speaker Sahibzada Farooq Ali Khan. The condition was placed that it would be open at least after 30 years.
