KARACHI – Former deputy speaker of the Sindh Assembly, Syeda Shehla Razalands in trouble over her tweet on social media.

She drew severe criticism of the social media users for tweeting heropposition to the inclusion of Dr Atif R Mian, who is an Ahmadi, in PrimeMinister Imran Khan’s newly reconstituted Economic Advisory Council (EAC).

On Sunday, Shehla Raza tweeted, “The creation of 5 million homes, 10million jobs, creation of South Punjab province all in a 100 days was alie.”“But this hypocrisy, the appointment of a descendant of Mirza Ghulam Ahmadas a close adviser was unexpected from those who declared the State ofMadina as an ideal,” she added.

پچاس لاکھ گھر ،کروڑ نوکری اورسودن میں صوبہ جنوبی پنجاب کا جھوٹ پہلے دن سمجھمیں آگیا تھا لیکن اس منافقت کی توقع شاید کسی کو بھی نہیں تھی کہ ریاست مدینہکو آئیڈیل قرار دینے والے عمران مرزا غلام احمد قادیانی کئے پڑ پوتے کو قریبیمشیر مقرر کریں گے
