He added that no leniency would be shown in this regard.

In response to a question, he stated that illegally residing foreign nationals would be repatriated, and the Federal Investigation Agency would be revamped and strengthened, the official news agency reported.

To another question about the current wave of terrorism in the country, Naqvi affirmed that it would be countered and eliminated at any cost.

Responding to inquiries about social media, he clarified that there are no restrictions on freedom of expression, but it should not be misused. He advocated for the introduction of laws in this regard, mentioning that social media laws were prevalent worldwide.

Regarding his nomination for the Senate elections, Naqvi expressed gratitude to political parties and friends who have nominated him for the Senate.
