Information minister tells Matiullah Jan to quit journalism

ISLAMABAD—Information Minister Shibli Faraz told Matiullah Jan to quit journalism after he asked a question the minister did not seem to like.

Mati pointed out that the Punjab government had failed to protect the people during NA-75 by-election in Daska where at least two people were killed and several others injured. He asked shouldn’t the Buzdar government resign?

The minister responded promptly: “He must not resign, but I think, you should quit journalism.”

Faraz and other Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf leaders were addressing the media in Islamabad.
