Published 21 May 2021

He said the Terrorism Prevention (Amendment) Bill, 2021, which scaled second reading during plenary on Wednesday, is the most jejune bill and it will fail.

Whether he takes action against members of the PML-Q, PML-N, or PTI, there is always something fishy about his intentions, says Raja Riaz.
