This time, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) information secretary Maryam Aurangzeb has sparked outrage across the country by making controversial comments about Imran Khan. In a press conference, he said, Imran Khan should have been beheaded when the Chinese president came in 2014.
In 2014, PML-N was in power in Pakistan. At that time, Imran Khan organized a sit-in program with a large number of leaders and supporters in the capital Islamabad to oust them from power. Maryam said, if Imran and his party leaders had been beheaded at that time, then he would not have become the main problem now.
Pakistan’s political situation has been volatile since the February 8 elections. A week after the election, no party has yet formed the government. Meanwhile, the whole of Pakistan was surprised by such comments of Maryam Aurangzeb.
Pakistan’s senior journalist Kamal Yusuf strongly opposed Maryam’s comments. He said that everyone should be given a chance to express their views, but violence has no place in politics.
Another journalist, Meher Tatar, said that Maryam Nawaz, one of the main leaders of PML-N, called Imran Khan a fitna and said to destroy him completely. Even, Maryam has repeatedly spoken of strict action against Imran’s supporters. Maryam Aurangzeb’s comments are an expression of PML-N’s violent attitude.
Meanwhile, such comments of Maryam Aurangzeb have caught the attention of foreigners as well. An American journalist named Ryan Grim said in this regard, PML-N’s information secretary is working to find out the reasons for the party’s poor electoral performance. Maryam Aurangzeb gave some ideas in this regard and said that it was their big mistake not to behead Imran Khan 10 years ago
