Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Attaullah Tarar on Monday said that the Protection of Journalists Bill would be presented for approval in the joint session of the Parliament. Replying to a question during the Question Hour session of the Lower House of the Parliament, he said that some names have been shortlisted for the appointment of the Chairperson while the Federal Union of Journalists has forwarded a name so far. Tarar added that the President of Pakistan had not given assent to the bill and returned to the House which would be presented in the joint sitting of the Parliament soon and the House would decide the matter. Earlier replying to another question, Tarrar criticized the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) parliamentarians for propagating false claims about casualties during the November 26 protests in Islamabad. Replying to PTI opposition Leader Omar Ayub Khan’s claims in the National Assembly, he challenged PTI to provide proof for 13 alleged deaths.
