Aamir Liaquat apologises for remarks that hurt Hindu community

Politician and TV personality Dr Aamir Liaquat on Wednesday apologised for an insensitive tweet that hurt the sentiments of the Hindu community.

A few days ago, the PTI MNA had taken to Twitter and posted a tweet that was aimed as a jibe at Maryam Nawaz but hurt the sentiments of the Hindu community (tweet cannot be attached here in respect of the sentiments of the Hindu community).

Following the tweet, Twitter lashed out at the PTI MNA, asking PM Imran Khan to take action against him. In a tweet, Liaquat said he apologised for unintentionally hurting the sentiments of the Hindu community.

ہندو کمیونٹی کے جذبات مجروح ہوئے معافی کا خواست گار ہوں مقصد ہر گز ایسا نہیں تھا, ٹوئٹ ہٹا دیا ہے, میں تمام مذاہب کی عزت کرتا ہوں یہی میرے دین کی تعلیمات ہیں , ایک بار پھر معذدت

“My intent was never this [to hurt the Hindu community] I have deleted the tweet. I respect all religions, this is the teachings of the religion I follow,” he tweeted.
