In a recent turn of events, Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has come under scrutiny, with a Pakistani influencer accusing him of spreading misinformation regarding India. This critique follows Sharif's admission that Indian missiles struck Pakistani airbases.

The controversy centers around claims made by Sharif concerning India's actions and Pakistan's response. According to reports, Sharif stated that he was informed by the Pakistani army chief, Syed Asim Munir, about Indian ballistic missiles hitting Nur Khan Airbase. He further claimed that Pakistan responded forcefully, leading India to seek a ceasefire.

However, these claims have been challenged by Pakistani influencer Waqar Malik, who questioned the logic behind India's supposed request for a ceasefire after supposedly suffering a powerful response. Malik criticized Sharif's narrative, pointing out inconsistencies and urging people to use their "basic common sense". He also highlighted the fact that Sharif allegedly agreed to a ceasefire without consulting parliament or other relevant bodies.

Adding to the criticism, Sharif boasted about utilizing homegrown technology and Chinese gadgets to counter Indian strikes, while failing to acknowledge that India successfully thwarted Pakistan's drones and missiles. Furthermore, Sharif's admission that he went for a swim after being informed about the Indian strikes on May 10 has drawn flak from Pakistani citizens, with one content creator remarking, "Pakistan was being bombed and our PM was taking a swim".

This is not the first time that Sharif's statements regarding India have faced scrutiny. Following India's "Operation Sindoor" targeting terror camps, Sharif made several claims in Parliament, including assertions about shooting down five Rafale jets and two drones. These claims were unsubstantiated, with no evidence provided to support them. India, on the other hand, confirmed that all its aircraft returned safely and released footage of successful strikes on nine terror camps.

The incident underscores the ongoing tensions between India and Pakistan and the role of misinformation in shaping public perception. It also highlights the increasing importance of fact-checking and critical analysis in the age of social media, where false narratives can easily spread and gain traction.

Moreover, India has blocked Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif's YouTube channel, citing national security and public order concerns. This action follows previous restrictions imposed on various Pakistani accounts, including that of Defence Minister Khawaja Asif on X, and the Instagram handles of top Pakistani cricketers.
