The minister said that matters regarding proscribed organisations had been decided in 2014 when all political parties had signed on to the National Action Plan (NAP). He warned that in case Pakistan is blacklisted by FATF, the country may face “rising gas and electricity bills”. The minister was also asked if action against proscribed organisations was being taken in the aftermath of the Pulwama attack and the dossier that India had sent; he, however, responded simply by saying Pakistan “had been taking action since 2014”. According to Fawad Chaudhry, it was not that steps were not being taken, but may that the media’s focus shifted away. He noted that the world was saying that what India was saying was wrong.
