In a stunning moment inside the Pakistani Parliament, a Member of Parliament launched a fiery tirade against Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif, exposing deep cracks in the nation’s leadership. The MP blamed elites for planning escapes abroad while common citizens suffer, boldly contrasting them with Indian PM Modi’s strong and decisive leadership. Calling out hypocrisy and misplaced loyalty, the MP declared that the people of Pakistan are not with the ruling class. This rare public rebellion highlights Modi’s rising global influence — even inside the halls of Pakistan’s own democracy.
