Attaullah Tarar, the Federal Minister for Information, has accused Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf PTI’s Alleged Indian of having links with India that expose its anti-national agenda. Tarar revealed that PTI’s connection with media strategist Rauf Hassan, who is believed to be linked with Indian entities, exposed a broader plan to destabilize Pakistan. He singled out former senior intelligence officer Faiz Hameed’s association with PTI’s founding chairman, claiming that Hameed played a key role in spreading anti-military propaganda within Pakistan. Tarar suggested that they crafted this narrative to make people believe there were divisions within the Pakistan Army, which could be detrimental to national security
Tarar further implies that PTI’s social media cell in Islamabad played an active role in establishing these relationships with foreign foes. The minister stated that the cell ran campaigns against the Pakistan Army and its Chief, pointing out that Indians supported these activities.
Faiz-Niazi Alliance and Implications Thereof
According to Attaullah Tarar, the Faiz-Niazi alliance poses grave dangers to the stability of Pakistan. He fingered Faiz Hameed as one of the key players behind this union asserting that he acted as a political pawn for PTI to create unrest in the country. Tarar also linked up Bushra Bibi alongside this alliance suggesting she steered activities carried out by them.
Moreover, Tarar accused PTI of working towards fulfilling the Indian agenda from within Pakistan itself. He claimed that their decision to bring back insurgents through the western border of the state was an intentional move meant to destabilize nationhood in line with Indian interests. These allegations cast doubt on how much influence foreign nations have on policies and actions taken by PTI.
