KUALA LUMPUR: A senior PAS lawmaker has called on the government to vet the scripts of television dramas with Islamic content, to ensure it is in line with the religion.

Kuala Nerus MP Datuk Dr Khairuddin Aman Razali (pic) said that he recently watched an episode of television drama on TV Alhijrah that promoted the culture of differences and dispute (khilaf) among Islamic scholars, and added that the way the drama was portrayed was confusing.
