Sher Afzal Khan Marwat, a Pakistani MP from Imran Khan’s PTI and legal counsel to the ex-PM, has ignited controversy after saying he would flee to England if India and Pakistan go to war. Responding to a journalist’s question, Marwat’s admission drew sharp criticism, especially from Indian leaders. BJP spokesperson Pradeep Bhandari stated the remark reflects Pakistan’s lack of trust in its military. With tensions escalating after the Pahalgam terror attack, Bhandari also claimed Pakistani ministers have booked flights for their families, fearing retaliation from India. The statement has fueled public outrage and questions about Pakistan’s wartime preparedness. (PC: NDTV)
