Interior Minister Naqvi calls on Pakistan’s religious scholars (ulema) to help strengthen the state’s anti-terrorism narrative. He urges better nationwide coordination involving mosques, seminaries, and religious boards, arguing that unified engagement by religious institutions can support efforts to counter terrorism. Naqvi’s message focuses on using religious platforms to promote counter-extremism themes and to reduce the space for terrorist messaging. The call is presented as part of broader work to improve public understanding and resilience against radicalization. While the specific mechanisms are not detailed in the available summaries, the overall emphasis is on systematic coordination across religious bodies rather than isolated outreach. The statement underscores the role of ulema and religious establishments in shaping narratives that discourage violence and extremism, aligning with state counter-terrorism objectives.
