Party spokesperson Rashid Alvi said such remarks by some people are "inappropriate" and "not civilized".

"This is not only the insult of MPs but Parliament. Parliament is made of MPs who are elected representatives of people, according to the Constitution. If such words are used for MPs, this is also the insult of the Constitution and the people who elect them," Alvi said.

Alvi asked the media not to give publicity to such remarks.
