APNS backs CPNE
KARACHI, July 5: The All Pakistan Newspapers Society has warned against a “conspiracy to disrupt unity in the ranks of the newspaper industry” at the behest of “vested interests” who want imposition of anti-press policies.
Announcing the decisions of an executive committee meeting of the APNS chaired by its president Arif Nizami, APNS secretary-general Mohammad Aslam Kazi said on Saturday the committee declared that the Council of Pakistan Newspapers Editors was the sole representative organization of editors in the country and any attempt to malign or weaken it would be treated as being against the interest of the APNS.
The committee advised its member publications to understand the destructive consequences of the conspiracy to form a parallel organization against the CPNE and remain united to foil such efforts.
The committee dissolved committees and sub-committees formed in its meeting on April 10 and said these will be reconstituted.—PPI
