Earlier today, the People’s Party formally suggested the election of the Public Accounts Committee’s (PAC) chairman by members until the matter is decided.

PPP Senator Saleem Mandviwalla has written a letter to NA Speaker Ayaz Sadiq and demanded holding a session of the PAC on a requisition of the committee’s members, parliamentary sources said.

It is pertinent to mention here that the Parliament has yet to decide about its most important public accounts committee.
