Not asked by Punjab CM to resign, says Fayyaz Chohan.
LAHORE (Dunya News) – Information and Culture Minister Fayyaz-ul-Hassan Chohan has on Tuesday said that Punjab Chief Minister (CM) Usman Buzdar has not sought resignation from him.
The provincial minister told that the chief minister had summoned explanation from him over his anti-Hindu remarks and he has clarified his stance.
Fayyaz Chohan had earlier apologized for statement against the Hindu community and said his remarks were not meant to target the Hindu religion or community; he just addressed the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, its army and media.
“All minorities are part of Pakistan and have equal rights,” he said.
Fayyaz Chohan was slammed by his own party leaders as well as the opposition after the racist comments. Prime Minister Imran Khan was also displeased with him and said derogatory statement against any minority is not acceptable.
