\nMr Alam said he had remained committed to his constitutional and legal responsibilities throughout the proceedings and had defended his position before the court in accordance with the law.

\nAccording to the minister, the legal struggle was not aimed at providing immunity to any individual or group, but at ensuring that criminal proceedings were conducted on the basis of evidence, law and due process.
\nMr Alam said the latest development in the Radio Pakistan case underscored the importance of transparent investigation, credible evidence and strict compliance with legal requirements in criminal proceedings.
\n\u201cTruth cannot be defeated by temporary pressure or political allegations. Ultimately, it is the law and justice that decide,\u201d he said.
\nHe thanked his lawyers, colleagues, political leadership, party workers and the public for their support, and reiterated his commitment to strengthening the rule of law, ensuring access to justice and protecting citizens\u2019 fundamental rights in the province.<\/p>\n
