ISLAMABAD: Minister for Information and Broadcasting Chaudhary Fawad Hussain on Tuesday said that the government has decided to form a high-level committee, comprising religious scholars, intellectuals and civil society representatives, to examine issues trending on social media and guide the government on the matters for formation of policies.

Addressing a press conference in Islamabad after a meeting of the federal cabinet, Fawad said the cabinet held a discussion on the recent violent incidents against women and “while addressing the session, Prime Minister Imran Khan said that incidents like the one at Minar-i-Pakistan are very concerning for every segment of the society.”

The minister said the government has decided to hold a grand debate where people from different sectors will be invited to have a discussion on social media trends so we can have some guidance on where we want to go and what regulations should be brought.
