Provincial Law Minister of Punjab Raja Basharat said that there would be no compromise on security affairs of the country, adding Pakistan is a peaceful country.
Speaking to media, he said that they would provide foolproof security to Bangladesh’s cricket team as they would do everything to highlight positive image of the country.
He said cricket returned to the country after quite long so it is our responsibility to protect the guests and provide them best available facilities. In a reply to a question, the minister said ticketing affairs are being handled by Pakistan Sports Board (PCB) while they will only handle security affairs.
