Ever since a Pakistani girl called out Bollywood’s Priyanka Chopra for encouraging war between Pakistan and India, calls for her removal as the UN Goodwill ambassador have gone much stronger. Not just Pakistanis, but people around the world have also urged UNICEF to strip her off this prestigious position. Now, Pakistan’s Minister for Human Rights, Shireen Mazari has also written to the head of the United Nations Children’s Fund (Unicef) to remove Priyanka Chopra as the UNICEF Goodwill ambassador.
