SIALKOT: Special Assistant to Prime Minister on Information and Broadcasting Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan has said PTI government believes in strengthening judiciary further as an independent institution. Talking to the media after addressing a seminar on ‘Philosophy of Iqbal’ at the Govt College Women University Sialkot on Friday, she said recent remarks of prime minister regarding the judiciary were presented in the press in a distorted manner. She said the PTI government believed only in accountability and the rule of law. Referring to the PTI funding case, she said the party presents itself for accountability, but our stance is that the petitions, filed by the PTI against other parties, are also clubbed and heard together.
