The State Minister of Information and Communications, Dr. Kamal Obeid, urged newspapers' Editors-in-Chief to abide with journalistic principles and self-censorship.
Obeid told Miraya FM that some party affiliated newspapers try to create crisis out of nothing as he puts it.
The minister added that there rules should be revised to guide partnership between the executive and newspapers' administrations.
Five newspapers had earlier handed memo to the Press and Publications Council in protest against what they called pre-censorship and security disturbances.
