Fawad Chaudhary: Islam in Pakistan is not threatened by TikTok or books
In a tweet posted,the minister said that at present, an atmosphere has been created in the parliament, especially in Punjab, where every member comes up with a new motion every other day.
The minister said that Pakistan did, on the other hand, face dangers from division based on sectarianism and extremism.
Earlier, the Punjab Assembly had passed the Tahaffuz-e-Bunyad-e-Islam Bill 2020 which gives the Directorate General Public Relations (DGPR) powers to visit and inspect any printing press, publication house, book store and confiscate any book, before or after printing.
Earlier, Fawad had said that it was not okay to go on banning apps left, right, and centre, as it would "destroy [Pakistani] tech industry".
He had further highlighted how development in technology would "be permanently hampered" across Pakistan, a country that already lags significantly behind the world in terms of science and research.
