Informed sources told Dawn on Wednesday that Chaudhry Nisar would speak about the government’s recently announced National Action Plan to eliminate terrorism and check terrorist financing, coordinate intelligence sharing between federal, provincial, and military police and security agencies and create dedicated counter-terrorism forces.
Since the Peshawar school attack by the Taliban, which left at least 150 schoolchildren and staff members dead, the government has pledged to target all terrorist organisations.
A number of major steps have already been taken in this regard.
