Nomination of Atif Mian as member EAC withdrawn, confirms Information Minister

ISLAMABAD: Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Chaudhry Fawad Hussain said on Friday that the government has withdrawn nomination of Atif Mian as member of Economic Advisory Council(EAC).

In a tweet, the Information Minister said, "The government wants to move forward taking along Ulema and all segments of the society, and if a different perception develops through a nomination, it is not right."

He said the state of Madina is the ideal of Prime Minister Imran Khan and the Prime Minister and his cabinet members love their Holy Prophet (SAW).

• The Minister said Khatam-e-Nabuwwat is part of Muslims faith, and the government’s recent success in connection with blasphemous caricatures was part of this association.
