Amidst the ongoing bloodshed and lynchings in the nation due to accusations of blasphemy, the National Assembly enacted a resolution on Sunday about the safeguarding of minorities in the nation during its turbulent session.
The administration and opposition remained split over a new military operation, Azm-e-Istehkam, which was declared on Saturday to eradicate militancy from the nation, causing instability during the lower house debate on Budget 2024–45.
A resolution to safeguard minorities was passed by the NA with a resounding majority, in addition to the argument between the opposition and treasury benches.
The federal and provincial administrations should guarantee the total protection of citizens living in the nation’s smaller settlements, according to the resolution introduced by Senator Azam Nazeer Tarar, Minister of Law.
