New Delhi: Tensions gripped Pakistan’s Parliament on Friday as a Member of the National Assembly launched a scathing attack on Pak Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, calling him a "coward" (buzdil) during a heated session. The MP accused the PM of failing to stand up to India as the Indian armed forces continued their strikes under Operation Sindoor.

The MP’s cries over during the session, where he said, “Our Prime Minister is hiding like a coward jackal. He doesn’t even have the courage to take Modi’s name.”

He further added, “Our armed forces are being led by a jackal, not a lion. Our soldiers are demoralised.” The remarks triggered chaos in Parliament, with ruling party members clashing with opposition MPs, as frustration over the government’s silence on India's attacks spilled into the open.
