Fawad also invited critics to bring improvement in the PECA .


Islamabad: Minister for Information and Broadcasting Chaudhry Fawad Hussain Friday said that all political parties should come together for media reforms stating that this is ‘not a political but a social issue’.
On his official twitter handle, the Federal Minister said that he ‘fully’ supported the implementation of the Pakistan Electronic Crimes Act (PECA) as ‘toying with public dignity’ was being committed on social media.
Fawad also invited critics to bring improvement in the PECA .
"Opposing the law’s existence or implementation in total was unjustified," he stressed.
PECA قانون کی مکمل حمائیت کرتا ہوں سوشل میڈیا پر لوگوں کی عزتوں سے کھلواڑ کیا جا رہا ہے قانون کو بہترکرلیں لیکن یہ کہنا کہ کوئ قانون نہ ہو یاایسا قانون ہو جو نافذ ہی نہ ہو سکےبالکل بےتکی بات ہے یہ سیاسی نہیں سماجی معاملہ ہےاور سیاسی جماعتوں کو میڈیا اصلاحات کیلئےاکٹھا ہونا چاہئیے
