What is the legal procedure for when a PM accuses the armed forces for creating Al Qaeda?

There isn't one because the PM wasn't the PM when he said and its an open secret that we created Mujahideen which later on separated into southern and northern alliances and also Al Qaeda..
Secondly it wasnt just Pakistan but USA and saudis who were involved in it... against Soviets..
As for legal procedure there isn't one as what he said was true..

It is a private member bill but has full support by the government. It was not presented on the which is called private members day, it was not agenda of NA, it was presented by bulldozing all the rules and regulations.

Nobody needs to defame what is already defamed. They should work on getting their image better.
