Ever since Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan spoke at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York, he has been drawing flak from different quarters. The former cricketer’s words hurt the Indian sentiments and people form Indian cricketing fraternity didn’t appreciate it as well.


After some strong condemnation from former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly and Virender Sehwag, Mohammad Kaif raised his voice, labelling Imran’s speech at UNGA ‘unfortunate’.

On Sunday, Kaif shared an article of an Indian publication and wrote: “Yes, but your country Pakistan certainly has a lot to do with terrorism, a safe breeding ground for terrorists. What an unfortunate speech at the UN and what a fall from grace from being a great cricketer to a puppet of Pakistan army and terrorists.”

Here’s the post:

Earlier, Ganguly had also termed Khan’s address at the UNGA as “rubbish”, saying that this is not the cricketer the world knew of. While Sehwag shared a video on Twitter in which American anchors can be seen slamming the cricketer-turned Prime Minister Khan.

In an interaction with an American news channel, Khan mocked the infrastructure in the country, saying “You have to go to China and see the way their infrastructure is. In New York, I am watching the car bumping around here.”
