NAROWAL: Planning Minister Ahsan Iqbal called for an end to religious radicalism and stressed the need for collective efforts to counter external agendas aimed at destabilizing the country. Speaking at a ceremony in Narowal, he said that acts of terrorism targeting innocent people had no basis in Islam and reflected a distortion of the religion’s core teachings.
Iqbal emphasized that Islam was a faith rooted in love, peace, and brotherhood, and warned that those seeking to sow division and hatred among communities were, in reality, advancing the objectives of Pakistan’s enemies.
He urged citizens, religious scholars, and civil society to work together to promote harmony, reject extremist ideologies, and safeguard the nation’s social cohesion. The minister’s remarks came amid heightened concerns over recent attacks on worshippers, which have intensified public debate on sectarianism and national security.
