As soon the band finished the song, the premier stood up from his chair to applaud the orchestra for the heartfelt performance.
Khan, who took oath as Pakistan’s 19th Prime Minister in last August following his party Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI)’s victory in July 2018 general elections, completed his two-day visit to Turkey — a longtime ally of this South Asian nuclear state — on Friday.
