PTI senator Faisal Javed Khan was trolled on Monday for paying tribute to Prime Minister Imran Khan — on International Women's Day.
The PTI leader took to social media to say that the prime minister had paid a great tribute to his mother by opening a cancer hospital in her name where free treatment is offered to over 70% of the patients.
"Who can pay the biggest tribute to a woman than Imran Khan who saw his mother dying from cancer & opened a hospital after her name paying a great tribute - SKMCH became the only cancer hospital in the World that provides free treatment to over 70% of patients. #HappyWomensDay," he tweeted.
The tweet did not sit well with Pakistani Twitterati, who called out the senator for posting a tribute for PM Imran Khan when he should have done so for a woman, given it is International Women's Day.
One person told the PTI senator to stop brown-nosing.
Another made use of this viral Simpsons meme to express his disappointment with the PTI senator.
"Leave us alone for today," said another Twitter user.
Hania used a facepalm to convey her feelings at the tweet.
Another person advised Javed not to be a "darbari".
