ISLAMABAD—The Council of Pakistan Newspaper Editors (CPNE) said it seems that the government was confused regarding the PMDA bill.
CPNE wondered why the regime was in such a hurry to get the Pakistan Media Development Authority bill approved.
A CPNE representative made these remarks during the National Assembly's sub-committee meeting on information and broadcasting.

He added that the government should explain and furnish the legal definition of fake news.
