ISLAMABAD, Pakistan: The Federal Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan has said that any domestic or international non-governmental organizations (NGOs) pursuing the foreign agenda against the national interests will not be allowed to operate in Pakistan.
“We do not want to impose any ban on the NGOs but they will have to respect the code of conduct and the charter of registration,” the minister while taking to media representatives in Islamabad on Friday.
The minister said that the federal government is framing a policy to bring the International NGOs under the domain of the country’s law and constitution. He pointed out that certain NGOs are working beyond their mandate in different parts of the country.
However, he added, that the country welcomes the NGOs engaged in public welfare projects. He said that the government will facilitate such NGOs operating under the domain of their charter.
Nisar further said with regards to the concerns expressed by the European Union on the capital punishment, that the execution is being carried in accordance with the country’s law and constitution.
The interior minister regretted the hue and cry on the revival of capital punishment saying a propaganda campaign has been unleashed to make it controversial.
