The biased attitude of Indian media depicts the weakness of their country.
NAROWAL (Dunya News) – Indian media while spewing venom against Pakistan begin to run a propaganda when pro-Khalistan leader Gopal Chawla shook hands with Army Chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa during the groundbreaking ceremony of Kartarpur corridor on Wednesday.
Despite of the fact that General Bajwa met indiscriminately with all the guests, India showed the meetup in a prejudiced and selective way.
Indian channels repeatedly broadcasted the clip on their channels claiming that General Qamar had only met Chawla owing to his political views.
However; Chawla while giving a befitting reply to the propaganda maintained that he is fortunate to have shaken hands with the army chief.
Director General of Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Maj Gen Asif Ghafoor also took to twitter and bashed the India media for its myopic view of the meeting.
Indian media taking a myopic view is selectively showing Mr. Gopal Chawla meeting COAS. Army Chief met all guests at the venue irrespective of identity. A peace initiative should not be subjected to propaganda. @IndiaToday pic.twitter.com/NMkQ17PhKn
