He said the successful SCO summit made it clear that Pakistan was not in isolation. Criticizing the previous government, Minister said that policies of PTI government from 2018 to 2022 tarnished the country’s image, but this government elevated the image of the country.

“The opposition party was unable to digest successful conduct of SCO meeting in Islamabad”, said the information minister. He said the PTI during its tenure crossed all limits of political victimization and not even spared women political leaders of PPP and the PML-N.
