Syed Iqrar-ul-Hassan

Television presenter Iqrar-Ul-Hassan is being slammed online for a thread of controversial tweets comparing India and Pakistan. He gave Pakistanis a reality check many found difficult to digest.

The famous crime show Sar-e-Aam host started off with commenting on how both nuclear neighbors responded to the Coronavirus pandemic in his ‘India vs Pakistan’ thread.

“We are not even sure that we ordered the vaccine or not, banana to door ki baat (making it is another story).”

Iqrar-ul-Hassan pointed out how India has invested in development in all social sectors throughout the year.

“If you want to compete, do it on the basis of education, science, sports, infrastructure, economy, technology… and face the truth,”

The investigative journalist also pointed out the fact that Pakistani passport and rupee are of a much lower value. He also compared it to other South Asian counterparts for good measure.

“Unfortunately, the Pakistani passport holds only as much value as one from Somalia or Afghanistan. The rupee is also at 1.90 compared to the Bangladeshi takka, and 2.20 compared to the Indian rupee,”

In the end, “May God give us the ability to turn Pakistan into the true meaning of ‘zindabad’,” he concluded.
