ISLAMABAD, Nov 24 (APP): Prime Minister’s Special Assistant on Information and Broadcasting Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan on Sunday said that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s core committee has decided to raise recent incident of desecration of the Holy Quran in Norway at the European Union and Organisation of Islamic Cooperation. She expressed her views while talking to media persons in Islamabad in a news conference.
She said that committee not only condemned the incident of desecration of Holy Quran but also reiterated Prime Minister Imran Khan’s stance that the narrative of Islamophobia is disastrous for the international peace.
“Government will present a resolution at both EU and OIC levels to discourage matters, which negatively affect Muslims’ emotions and sentiments” she said.
Regarding economic situation in the country, Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan said the committee unanimously commended efforts of the Prime Minister and his economic team for successfully handling economic challenges like current account deficit, trade deficit, and circular debt.
Special Assistant said the committee also decided to effectively counter the fake propaganda against the ruling party over foreign funding case in the Election Commission of Pakistan.
She said PTI’s legal team has been asked to effectively present party’s point of view in the ECP and the media to end disinformation and fake news.
She said the ECP should conduct audit of all political forces instead of targeting a particular party.
