elements would be taken on merit.

Rana Sanaullah said that Imran Khan had tried to use religion for gaining his political motives and still he was not refraining
from doing so. He continued adding that PML-N never got afraid of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, despite they had made fake cases against
PML-N leaders.He said that political difference should remain to the extent of politics.
On this occasion Federal Law Minister Azam Nazeer Tarar strongly condemned the incident and termed it as shameful. He said that no section related to 295-C (blasphemy) was used in FIR and added that cases had been registered under
sections 295 and 296.
He said that 295 and 296 sections were applicable on Mosques, gurdwaras, temples and churches adding that these provisions
were there to maintain religious harmony. He said that investigation would be done purely on merit.
