Punjab Senior Minister Abdul Aleem Khan said that the approval of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF)-related bills by the parliament was an important milestone for the country. According to a press release issued on Friday, the minister said that the opposition had once again shown an irresponsible attitude towards national affairs, adding that it was very unfortunate to politicise such sensitive national issues. He further said that leaders in the opposition parties should have discharged their responsibilities and cooperated with the government to pass laws related to national security and other crucial matters. The senior minister stated that protection of personal interests in the guise of constitution-making did not benefit anyone. The Pakistan Peoples Party and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz should have participated in constitution-making in accordance with democratic requirements, he added.
