Prime Minister Imran Khan recently gave an interview to Jonathan Swan from HBO Axios which got wide attraction because of some exclusive statements by Imran Khan. The interview got viral because Imran Khan clearly stated “absolutely not” when he was asked about allowing US bases in Pakistan.
Another statement from the same interview was widely reported in which Imran Khan said that if a woman was wearing short clothes, it would have an impact on men unless they were robots.
Imran Khan tried to highlight the importance of “parda” (modesty) and resist those elements spreading vulgarity through electronic media
However, Pakistan Television Corporation (PTV) released an unedited version of the interview which unveiled many other statements of Imran Khan which were not aired by HBO Axios. Imran Khan’s statement about the situation in India caused by the rise of Hindutva was also censored by HBO. Pakistan demanded clarification from HBO for censoring PM Imran Khan statements
