Qaiser hits back at federal ministers for allegedly politicizing martyrs for political gains
Qaiser reaffirms PTI's recognition and honor for the sacrifices made by soldiers defending the nation's borders, criticizes what he calls the misleading propaganda by Defence Minister Khawaja Asif and Information Minister Ataullah Tarar.


Islamabad: Former National Assembly speaker and prominent PTI leader Asad Qaiser responded strongly to federal ministers Khawaja Asif and Attaullah Tarar's accusations against his party for allegedly running a smear campaign against Pakistan military and law enforcement agencies' martyrs.
Speaking to reporters, Qaiser reaffirmed PTI's recognition and honor for the sacrifices made by soldiers defending the nation's borders, criticizing what he called the misleading propaganda by Defence Minister Khawaja Asif and Information Minister Ataullah Tarar.
In a social media post, Qaiser condemned those exploiting soldiers' martyrdom for political gains, emphasizing the nation's pride in its protectors.
PTI leader Barrister Saif also condemned PML-N for exploiting martyrs for political purposes, reiterating PTI's patriotic stance and denying any involvement in maligning security forces' martyrs.
Earlier, Khawaja Asif accused PTI of mocking martyrs, suggesting those making such statements should be linked with terrorists. Information Minister Ata Tarar warned of action against PTI's social media team for allegedly orchestrating an insulting campaign against martyrs, particularly those in North Waziristan.
The statements came after seven army soldiers, including a lieutenant colonel and a captain, were martyred in a terrorist attack in Mir Ali area of North Waziristan on Saturday.
