Maryam Nawaz said, "One should not even hold talks with these people [government]," she said, pointing out that except for the PTI, all political parties should unite and think about the welfare of Pakistan.
She stated that Media Regulatory Authority was being established because the government wanted to create hurdles in the way of the media as well as the Opposition.
She also said that the bill was a continuation of the incumbent government's policies aimed at censoring the media.
Maryam said Opposition parties should concentrate on how the government is employing efforts to rig the upcoming elections. She said the government was exacting political revenge in the name of accountability.
