  "summary": "The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has requested the National Assembly (NA) Speaker to issue production orders for nine of its Members of National Assembly (MNAs) who were allegedly detained. The request was made in a letter to NA Speaker Ayaz Sadiq by Chief Whip Amir Dogar on Tuesday, ahead of the scheduled sessions of the Senate and National Assembly. The nine MNAs, who include Haji Imtiaz Ahmad Choudhry, Muhammad Jamal Ahsan Khan, and others, are said to be currently detained. The PTI claims that issuing production orders under Rule 108 of the 2007 Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business in the National Assembly will ensure representation from all constituencies during the proceedings of the House.",
