A unanimous resolution was adopted on Monday in the Senate against a caricature competition in Netherlands, which can hurt the sentiments of Muslims worldwide due to the heretical nature of the content.
In today's session of Senate, the resolution was tabled by Leader of the House Shibli Faraz.
After passing of the resolution, Prime Minister Imran Khan made his first speech to the upper House of Parliament.
Imran said that very few Europeans understand hurting of Muslim sentiments over blasphemous content.
The prime minister said he understands the European mindset they do not understand the love Muslims have for the Prophet.
Imran further said that his government will priortise the issue and take it up with global Muslim body, the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC).
He said that a session of the OIC should be held to discuss the matter of blasphemous caricature competition.
