In a session on Monday, the Senate unanimously approved a resolution unequivocally condemning the mob lynching incidents that occurred in Sargodha and Swat. The resolution demanded that both the federal and provincial governments ensure public safety for all, including vulnerable communities and minorities. Chairperson of the Senate Standing Committee on Climate Change, Senator Sherry Rehman, stressed the critical need for counter-terrorism operations across the country to stem the resurgence of terrorism. https://ift.tt/37r6lzk “Do PTI want instability, extremism, and violence against minorities? I am shocked to see that PTI members in the National Assembly did not sign the resolution on the Swat mob lynching incident, which demanded an end to the weaponisation of religion and extremism. They have learned no lesson from the past,” she said. She added that the attitude of PTI lawmakers was a disgrace to the 90,000 civilians and martyrs of the armed forces who sacrificed their lives in the war on terror.
