PM Imran Khan during an address in South Waziristan passed sexist remarks against People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, calling him a ‘Sahiba’.
“I came into power through struggle and hard work unlike Bilawal Sahiba who, using the will of her mother became the head of the political party.” – Imran Khan.
Sahiba which means miss or madam in Urdu made everyone furious and the clip of him saying this was spread like fire all across social media where people criticized him for not maintaining his grace. A lot of people thought it was a slip of tongue yet many others took this all as an insult to the women gender.
Women all across the country got offended and deeply disappointed saying Imran khan thinks being a women is an insult and can easily call someone a ‘sahiba’ to disrespect him, further on for which he owes an apology to all the women out there.
