KARACHI: Caretaker Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Murtaza Solangi said on Friday that the government will create a conducive environment for general elections.

In the meeting, they discussed important issues including conducting free, fair, and transparent elections and providing facilities to the media during the election process.
The minister said that conducting free, fair, and transparent elections was the common responsibility of the relevant institutions.
He said that media was part and parcel of various stages of the election process as it acted as a bridge for the Election Commission of Pakistan.
