— Journalist delegation to be taken to siteISLAMABAD: Federal Minister of Information and Broadcasting Fawad Chaudhry on Saturday rejected reports that a madrassa in Bawalpur is allegedly the headquarter of militant outfit Jaish-e-Muhammad (JeM). Moreover, he added that after the National Security Committee (NSC) meeting, the government has decided to implement the National Action Plan. The move came a day after the National Security Committee (NSC) decided that efforts would be expedited to rout extremism from the society. JeM had purportedly claimed responsibility for a deadly attack on Indian security forces in the Indian-occupied Kashmir earlier this month, killing at least 44 paramilitary soldiers. The Punjab police are providing security and protection to the campus, he added.
