The video of the incident was shared by journalist Naila Inayat on Twitter where she suggested that Ahmad’s new portfolio should be, ‘Minister for spitting on live TV’.
It so happened that Sheikh Rashid Ahmad was asked about Sanaullah during the debate to which he responded that he would like to ask General Qamar Bajwa to rein in Rana Sanaullah. “No senior army officer will salute them but will spit on them,” he added. To everyone’s shock, the former minister actually spat while uttering this. The clip has got more than 19,000 views so far and garnered a number of reactions. Reacting to the video, a user wrote, “Sheikh Rasheed, this was ‘thook wali sarkar’.”

A user perceived him as a comedian.
“He behaved like an angry mother-in-law,” wrote another user.
For one of the users, the video made his day.
Earlier, Pakistani politician Firdous Ashiq Awan – who is a special assistant to the Chief Minister Punjab – had slapped another politician after a heated argument between the two on a TV show.
Awan alleged that PPP MNA Qadir Mandokhail had threatened her and abused her late father during the recording of the TV show. Therefore, she decided to take this step and slap the other minister. She had added that she would consult her legal team to take further action against Mandokhel.
Earlier, Bharatiya Janata Party’s national spokesperson Sambit Patra made it to the headlines after he had left a TV debate. This happened during News18 India’s debate show ‘Aar-Paar’.
