Shah Faesal, the Indian Administrative Service topper, on Friday said that a section of Indian media is shaming the country internationally by their coverage of the Pakistan elections.
Faesal pointed out that the new PM of Pakistan is talking about reconciliation however ‘loudmouths’ on the Indian side are making it sure that the hostilities continue.
In a tweet, Faesal said:
India is being shamed (internationally) by (a section of) Indian media. The neighbouring country has elected a new PM, he is talking about reconciliation, he is talking about change, but the loudmouths on this side are ranting to ensure that the hostilities continue.

Imran Khan, whose party, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf emerged as the single largest party in the National Assembly of Pakistan, is all set to become the next head of the state.
In his victory speech Khan said stressed that the Kashmir issue is the core issue between India and Pakistan and needs to be settled with dialogue.
He also pointed out that he has envisioned a Medina-like Islamic Welfare State which will be sympathetic towards the weaker sections of the society.
“I want to share with you the kind of Pakistan I envision — the type of state that was established in Medina, where widows and the poor were taken care of,” he said.
“My inspiration comes from the last Prophet who set up an ideal welfare state in Medina. I want Pakistan to become like that. A humanistic, not an animalistic state,” he said in a speech made from Bani Gala in Islamabad and broadcast via video link.
