Islamabad: On Friday, a high -level Hadle, chaired by Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif, decided to comprehensively fight extremist stories and promote an active and effective response against terrorism and extremism.
Civil and military leadership, along with representatives from all four provinces, Azad Kashmir, and Gilgit -Baltistan, attended the meeting at the Prime Minister’s house on Friday.
Officials vowed to expose criminals of the Jaffar Express attack and aggressively counter anti -state campaigns on traditional and digital media.
It was agreed that the National Action Plan (APP) would be used to strengthen the national statement, in which authorities would be instructed to prepare an active and effective response against terrorism and extremism.
The Hadle also decided to stop any material that threatened national security and harmony while ensuring better harmony between the provinces.
To include young people, films and dramas will add national topics to effectively counter extremist propaganda.
In addition, digital media will be used to spread pro -state pro -content and deal with misinformation, including depp -faked material with certified information.
