“We will continue our work to counter IK’s toxic politics & bring people together”, she maintained.
In his tweet sharing a video clip in which Marriyum Aurangzeb was being asked questions by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf activists during a protest in London, Talat said she braved the situation with aplomb.
He said it was a ‘shameful act on the part of harassers’ and the trend would be irresistible for others.
He said it was only a matter of time before PTI women or Imran himself would face the same situation. “I will condemn it even then but with the reminder that what goes around comes around”, Talat Hussain said.
