Instead of trying to become moral brigade, it would be better if parliament devoted energies to constructive matters.

ISLAMABAD: The National Assembly Standing Committee for Information and Broadcasting has advised that it should be made compulsory for female news anchors to wear a dupatta when on air. Instead of wasting time and energy on non-issues by trying to become part of the moral brigade, it would be far better if our members of parliament devoted their energies to more constructive matters, such as formulating and passing legislation that makes a practical difference for the better in the lives of ordinary Pakistanis.
