Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s office shared a cropped group photograph from the 26th Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, apparently to place him at the centre of the image. The edited version showed Sharif standing alongside Chinese President Xi Jinping, Russian President Vladimir Putin and other leaders. However, the original photograph shared by Prime Minister Narendra Modi showed Sharif was actually standing fourth from the right, while Modi and several other leaders had been cropped out. The move drew attention because the altered framing made Sharif appear more central in the summit’s official group photograph. (PC: NDTV)
