Pak minister warns to expose all anti Pakistan forces

Lahore, July 14 (ANI): Pakistan's State Minister for Interior Tasnim Ahmed Qureshi has said that the government would expose all local and foreign forces attempting to weaken Pakistan's integrity, solidarity and security at the right time.

Talking to media after being briefed by FIA Director (Immigration) Azam Joyia here on Tuesday, he said the entire security apparatus of the country has been improved to eliminate terrorism effectively.

"We have cleansed the Swat Valley of extremists and terrorists and will wipe them out completely with the active support of the nation," Qureshi observed.

He said the IDPs are going back to their hometowns, which are now secured to live in, The News reported.

Replying to a question on Ajmal Qasab, he said India has now come to realise Pakistan's viewpoint that stubbornness is no solution to the matter, adding that both governments are progressing on the case on the basis of documentary proof and evidences with mutual understanding.

To another query, Qureshi said that he had issued only 8,000 arms licences purely on merit basis, as the Prime Minister had delegated his powers in this regard to him, following his (PM) busy schedules.

Qureshi urged the masses to play their effective role in improving the country's economy by doing foreign transactions through banks.

He also appealed to the people not to use illegal means for going abroad and must verify whether the respective travel agent is registered with the concerned government department. (ANI)
