Barring Seemal Kamran From Entering Punjab Assembly
On arriving at the Punjab Assembly, Seemal Kamran was stopped by the assembly guards who said they were acting under the orders of Speaker Rana Muhammad Iqbal. Seemal Kamran said she had not received any written orders that barred her entry into the assembly. Kamran said the female MPAs had been abused for the last four years, but the chief minister and the speaker were seemingly helpless in controlling the situation. She stated that her treatment at the hands of the assembly guards was shameful and that Punjab CM Shahbaz Sharif, Law Minister Rana Sanaullah and Speaker Rana Iqbal were responsible for her mistreatment.

Neither does he know where he is not free; he does not recognize his native autocrats when he sees them.”
—Erik H. Erikson (1904–1994)
