The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government "will not tolerate this nonsense", party leader Naeemul Haque said Monday night in response to the deprecatory remarks made by Punjab Information Minister Fayyaz ul Hassan Chohan against Pakistan's Hindu community.
"The derogatory and insulting remarks against the Hindu community by Fayyaz Chohan the Punjab Info Minister demand strict action. PTI govt will not tolerate this nonsense from a senior member of the govt or from anyone. Action will be taken after consulting the Chief Minister," Haque, who is special assistant to Prime Minister Imran Khan, tweeted.
