Govt launched unprecedented crackdown against proscribed organisations: Shehryar

Minister of State for Interior Shehryar Khan Afridi says federal and provincial governments have launched an unprecedented crackdown against proscribed organizations and all political stakeholders had been taken into confidence over the issue.

Briefing a group of diplomats on the government's actions against proscribed organizations in Islamabad today (Thursday), he said action taken against the proscribed organisations is our own decision adopted under the National Action Plan.

Shehryar Afridi said the government's handling of protests against Asia Bibi verdict had sent a message loud and clear to all that no one will be dictating the terms now.
