Imran Khan gets trolled for tweeting about coronavirus

Islamabad : Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan got trolled on social media after he offered his support to China, who is battling with the spreading coronavirus infection. While in one tweet he offered his support in another he claimed that foreign office has been instructed to do every possible thing to help stranded students in Wuhan.

"Pakistan stands with the people & govt of China in their difficult & trying time and it will always stand by them. We will be extending every material & moral support to China just as China has always stood by us during all our times of trial and tribulation," the PM tweeted facing questions of what he plans to do for Pakistani students, and Uighur Muslims persecuted in China. https://twitter.com/ImranKhanPTI/status/1227613869562044416

The tweet did not end as per intention and the people on social media mercilessly trolled him for his support. Check out some of the reactions below:

Early this month Pakistan had released the statement that it will not be airlifting its students from Wuhan in interest of its loved ones.

The remark came as several Pakistani citizens posted videos on social media, pleading their government to evacuate them, while India was airlifting its students. India's foreign minister S Jaishankar has told Parliament that Pakistani students were also offered to be airlifted.

In Wuhan, around 5000 Pakistani students are currently present and are pleading for help from their government.
