ISLAMABAD: Federal Interior Minister Syed Mohsin Naqvi emphasized that the nation required the guidance of religious scholars in combating terrorism. He announced that the government would soon commence consultations with them to ensure effective outcomes.
Speaking to Central Ruet Hilal Committee Chairman Maulana Abdul Khabeer Azad, who visited him, the minister stated that terrorists have no religion.
He said, “A nationwide campaign to involve Ulema from all sects in the fight against terrorism will soon begin to make the anti-terrorism narrative more effective,” adding, “This war is crucial for the country’s survival.”

He vowed, “However, we will all thwart the malicious plans of our enemies.” Speaking on the occasion, Maulana Khabeer said that ‘Paigham-e-Pakistan’ is the narrative under which terrorism, extremism, and sectarianism are prohibited.
