Mehwish Hayat slammed the recently re-elected Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi over being petty. Modi has not invited Prime Minister of Pakistan Imran Khan for his swearing-in ceremony.
The Indian Government sent invitations to many heads of states to attend the ceremony but none was sent to the Pakistani premier. They intentionally left out Pakistan, which exposes how petty and small-minded the decision-makers in the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government are.
Here are some of the leaders that were invited to the ceremony:
Here are some more pictures from the swearing-in ceremony. Grateful for everyone’s blessings.
The occasion was made even more special by the participation of esteemed world leaders. I thank them for being a part of today’s programme. pic.twitter.com/5EA5SBiizp

Seeing as how deeply-linked Pakistan and India are, given their shared history, by not inviting Khan India has sent a dangerous signal about how non-serious it is about settling issues between the two neighbors.
Mehwish Is Not Amused
Mehwish Hayat expressed her displeasure with this decision. She slammed Modi for not inviting the Pakistani Prime Minister at the swearing-in ceremony.
The Tamgha-e-Imtiaz holder recently tweeted about this incident:
This sort of news depresses me. These are the occasions when our neighbours could have reciprocated our PM Imran Khan’s peaceful overtures & extended the hand of friendship. Too much history between us I know but would have been a start. #givepeaceachancehttps://t.co/6OAG73DZ1j

Mehwish Hayat was of the view that peace should be given a chance. For that to happen, people have to rise against petty mindsets. Someone has to step up and start somewhere, but that certain someone is not Narendra Modi.
