Responding to a question regarding the government s agreement with Tehreek-e-Labaik Pakistan (TLP) protesters, Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Fawad Chaudhry termed the move a firefighting. In his interview with British Broadcasting Company (BBC), he said that this is a temporary solution to the problem but we need to come up with a permanent solution.
The minister said that we need to take steps against extremism, adding that the government was committed to resolving problems. "We need to take steps against extremism, we need to take steps against such kind of violent protesters and we need to come up with a permanent solution. Right now this is not a cure. This is firefighting, what we are doing. The cure is the real thing and our government is committed to the cure."
Chaudhry went on to say that the courts would decide whether or not to put Aasia Bibi on the Exit Control List (ECL).
