Anchorperson Mohammad Malick has launched criticism against Dr Shahbaz Gill after the PM’s aide delivered ‘nonsense’ remark
ISLAMABAD: Anchorperson Mohammad Malick has launched criticism against Dr Shahbaz Gill after the prime minister’s aide delivered ‘nonsense’ remark during a television programme.
Hum News anchorperson Mohammad Malick lost his cool after being criticised by Special Assistant to Prime Minister (SAPM) on Political Communication Dr Shahbaz Gill while hosted a TV programme.
The debate was started on the economic crisis of the country to which the host taunted Gill as saying that he knew nothing about the economy. Gill has quickly responded to him, saying that nobody knows economy better than him as he completed his doctorate degree in business economy.
The mentioning of his degree was the turning point of the TV programme as Mohammad Malick raised question on the authenticity of University of Malaya’s degrees and termed the status of the foreign university ‘suspicious’. To this, Gill remarked ‘nonsense’ following Malick’s criticism.
Later, the video of verbal fight between Shahbaz Gill and Mohammad Malick went viral on social media as ‘nonsence’ became one of the top trends on Twitter in Pakistan.
Malick brought the fight to the Twitter by sharing the video clip of his TV programme, captioning it that a government spokesperson was launching personal attacks instead of answering the questions and asking a journalist to quit journalism.
ایک ترجمان کا ذاتیات پر جانا اور بجائے اپنے سوالوں کے جواب دینے کے ایک صحافی کو بولنا کے آپ صحافت چھوڑ دیں ۔۔۔ کیا کوئی بے ہودگی اور بدتمیزی کا جواب دے سکتا ہے ؟؟ ہم تو نہیں دے سکتے @MalickViews@pmln_org @PPP_Org @PTIofficial@SajjadBhatti #PTIGovernment @humnewspakistan pic.twitter.com/doquhES5mw

On the other hand, Dr Shahbaz Gill said on Twitter, he was not expecting such statements from Malick and shared the meaning of the word ‘nonsense’
However, Malick was seemingly unaware of the global ranking of the University of Malaya as the varsity stands at 59 and some famous personalities like Mahathir Mohamad, Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, former president of Singapore, former female chief justice of Malaysia and others received their education from the same varsity.
The Malaysia’s state-owned University of Malaya was locally ranked top and 59 globally. The criticism could have raise questions over the incomplete research of Malick who is hosting a political analysis programme.
