The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf clarifies Imran Khan's stance on a controversial social media post related to the 1971 civil war, emphasizing the need for understanding context in political discourse to prevent misinterpretation.

The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has issued a statement clarifying that party founder Imran Khan should not be linked to a recent controversial social media post related to the 1971 civil war and the Hamoodur Rahman Commission Report. The party emphasized that the post was not aimed at the military and should be viewed in a political context.

PTI leader and Member of the National Assembly, Barrister Gohar Ali Khan, stressed that the mention of 1971 was made within a political framework and was not meant to refer to the army. He explained that the comparison drawn in the post was purely political and should not be misunderstood.

The 1971 civil war in Pakistan led to the secession of East Pakistan, which later became Bangladesh. The Hamoodur Rahman Commission Report was a government inquiry into the events surrounding the war and its aftermath. The period remains a sensitive topic in Pakistan's history, with differing interpretations and narratives.

It is crucial to understand the context and intent behind social media posts and political statements to avoid misinterpretation. PTI's clarification regarding Imran Khan's association with the controversial post aims to provide clarity and prevent any misconceptions. Political discourse should be approached with sensitivity and awareness of historical contexts to foster constructive dialogue.
