ISLAMABAD: Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Tuesday said the government, after analysing the findings of the Broadsheet Inquiry Commission report, would make it public.
After attending an event, while talking to media persons, he said that the Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government under the leadership of Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan had put the country on the path of an Islamic welfare state as envisioned by the Quaid-i-Azam and his companions.
Faraz expressed the confidence that the nation under the honest, dedicated, and dynamic leadership of Prime Minister Imran Khan would touch the zenith of success and prosperity.
The minister said that the Broadsheet Commission’s inquiry report had been presented to PM Imran Khan, and the cabinet would review and discuss the pros and cons of the findings.
He said the inquiry report would be reviewed, and then accordingly, a legal course would be adopted.
He said details of the inquiry report would also be shared with the media.
While criticising the opposition alliance of the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM), he said that the only objective of its creation was to defend personal interests.
The minister said that the people had rejected the narrative of the opposition parties.
He said that the Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N) was formed to protect Sharif family’s business interests.
He said that the PDM chief, Maulana Fazlur Rehman, at present, was engaged in the business of "rent a crowd".
Faraz said that in the past, the country’s institutions were intentionally weakened to cover up corruption of the ruling elite but the PTI government under the leadership of PM Imran Khan had "eliminated this menace."
He said that Nawaz Sharif had escaped the law of the land, and it had been the practice of the Sharif family that they fled the country whenever they faced difficult times.
He said it was regrettable that the national institutions were asking questions to the leaders of the opposition but instead of satisfying them, the opposition alliance was mobilising crowds to pressurise the institutions.
Earlier, the minister, while addressing the participants of the event, said that a society would have to be created where there was rule of law and all the people irrespective of their status had equal economic opportunities.
Faraz regretted that certain elements were using tactics to protect their corruption.
He said they were pressurizing the institutions and making a mockery of the law.
He, however, said that those influential and elite would be made subservient to the law, adding this country was not made for one family but for the people where they had access to justice and enjoy equal opportunities.
He said that unprecedented sacrifices were given by the Muslims of the Subcontinent to achieve a separate homeland. He said that the powerful and the elite would be brought under the rule of law and steps were being taken to end economic inequality.
