But the shocking thing is that the The wire which is a small organisation and always tries to defame India, got 3 journalists visa to cover the news in Pakistan while India’s Biggest Media Network “ANI” editor did not get visa to cover this News.
Nope. We didn’t get visa.

ANI, which is arguably the largest news agency in India doesn’t get a visa, but The Wire sends 3 people to Pakistan. Can’t attribute motives, though. Maybe Imran Khan doesn’t like Smita Prakash because she doesn’t praise his luscious hair or good looks (like some others) 🤷♀️ https://t.co/lIoumOyjQu
