Islamabad – A controversial statement by Pakistani MP Sher Afzal Khan Marwat has gone viral, triggering widespread reactions amid escalating tensions between India and Pakistan following the Pahalgam terror attack.
During an interview, Marwat was asked whether he would take up arms if war broke out between the two nations. His response—“If war escalates, I will go to England”—has drawn sharp criticism, with many questioning the morale of Pakistan’s leadership.
The remark comes at a time when India has intensified diplomatic and economic measures against Pakistan, including suspending the Indus Waters Treaty, revoking visas for Pakistani nationals, and closing key border crossings. Meanwhile, reports suggest that Pakistan is facing an acute shortage of critical ammunition, prompting emergency military purchases from China.
Marwat’s statement has fueled debates on Pakistan’s preparedness for conflict, with social media users mocking the MP’s apparent reluctance to stand by his country in a crisis. His comments also sparked discussions on Pakistan’s political instability, as he has been isolated from his former party, PTI, following repeated criticisms of its leadership.
As tensions continue to rise, both nations remain on high alert, with cross-border firing reported along the Line of Control (LoC) for the tenth consecutive night.
Stay tuned for further updates on this developing situation.
