They also discussed matters pertaining to Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act and other issues. Elahi welcomed recent steps of cut in oil prices and electricity tariff. The minister said the government believes in freedom of expression and welcomes criticism but attacking the dignity of anybody under the garb of criticism is not appropriate.
