Information minister Senator Muhammad Ali Durrani on Sunday said the PML government has established a system to ensure complete press freedom. But no one would be allowed to do any thing wrong with the country and there was no freedom to plunder the national exchequer, he said while addressing a reference here at the PML house.
It was organised by the cultural wing of Pakistan Muslim League in memory of great poet and columnist Ahmed Nadeem Qasmi. The minister said press is totally free but there would be no compromise on national interests, integrity and solidarity of the country.
The minister said the PML as a national party has been providing guidance to the nation in all departments.
