LAHORE – The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on Thursday faced criticism over the photos it used in an advertisement campaign to highlight its three-year performance.
The advertisement was published on front pages of the country’s leading newspapers but social media users, particularly PML-N, were quick to point out that the images appeared to be taken from an Indian website.
PML-N spokesperson Marriyum Aurangzeb lashed out at the PTI and said the government stole photos from an Indian portal to highlight “fake development and prosperity” in Pakistan.
