Amid rising tensions between India and Pakistan, a video from Pakistan's national assembly is making rounds on social media. In the viral video, a woman MP can be heard slamming Pakistan's Defence Minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif with her blistering speech for Asif's statement given during an interview with UK-based Sky News.
The woman MP can be heard firmly saying, "Defence Minister ka specially, jo ravaya hai, wo bohot irresponsible hai," which roughly translates to, "The Defence Minister's approach has been very irresponsible."
"International media mein agar angrezi nahi atti hai to na jao, if you cannot defend your own country, don't go there. don't mock yourself, don't mock your government, don't mock your state," she said.
She further said, "Aap se waha pe sawal karte hai aur aap aage se kehte hai ki Pakistan toh shadgardh (terrorist) palta hai."
Pakistan Defence Minister's Controversial Statement
When asked by anchor Yalda Hakim about Pakistan's long history of backing, supporting training and funding these terrorist organisations, Asif said, "Well, we have been doing this dirty work for the United States for about three decades, you know, and west, including Britain. That was a mistake, and we suffered for that."
"And that is why you are saying this to me. If we had not, joined the war, against the Soviet Union and later on the war after nine eleven, this, Pakistan's track record was unimpeachable," he added.
Meanwhile, escalating the tensions even further, one Paksitani drone hit a residential area in Firozpur, Punjab on Friday, injuring three people.
