‘This won’t be the last time’: Farhan Saeed slams Indian media over Pahalgam Incident
Renowned singer Farhan Saeed has expressed strong criticism over the "irresponsible and provocative" coverage by Indian media following the Pahalgam incident.
Sharing his thoughts through an Instagram story, Farhan wrote, “As sad as the Pahalgam incident is, the Indian media's irresponsible and provocative attitude towards this incident is equally sad.”
He didn’t hold back his anger and added, “This is not the first time that the Indian media has done this and I am sure that this is not the last time either, but this attitude will be even worse in the future.”
The backlash from Farhan comes at a time when Pakistani artists have once again been banned in India.
Calling out the media's obsession with sensationalism, he said, "These people say anything just to increase viewership, and if, God forbid, anything happens between these two countries, the Indian media will be at the forefront of the race, and the people of both countries will have to bear the consequences.”
In a direct message to Indian news outlets, Farhan urged, “Show some responsibility.”
The singer’s bold statement has sparked discussions online, with many echoing his concerns about the role of media in fuelling tensions between Pakistan and India.
