  ISLAMABAD (92 News) – Special Assistant on Information Firdous Ashiq Awan has said that the executive authority of the prime minister (PM) has been forwarded to the Parliament regarding the army chief’s service tenure on Thursday. Addressing a ceremony in Islamabad, the special assistant mentioned that the institutions belong to the people of Pakistan, not to any individual or party. She hoped that the parliament will play its role according to the constitution and law. “The major national issue is hopefully resolved and Parliament will play a key role. The issues of national security should be kept away from politics,” Firdous Ashiq Awan said. The adviser also said that the overseas Pakistanis have always expressed love for the motherland and played their part in the country’s development. She said 2020 will hopefully be the year of progress for the underdeveloped people as employments are increasing with ease of doing business. Earlier, Firdous Ashiq Awan regretted that PML-N spokespersons, who frequently speak against NAB, are doing politics on NAB Amendment Ordinance. In series of her tweets, the special assistant said that under NAB Amendment Ordinance, honest public office holders will be able to make decisions in public interest fearlessly and perform their constitutional responsibilities. Firdous Ashiq Awan said Prime Minister Imran Khan’s Jihad against corruption continues with full force. She also said NAB is supposed to carry out action against mega corruption scandals and it will do its job with reinforced commitment. She said action will definitely be taken against those government employees who have secured personal interests through procedural flaws or departmental lacunas. She said public office holders, who have increased their assets manifold, misusing authorities will not be spared of action.
