New Delhi: Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif faced criticism over his celebration video on athlete Arshad Nadeem’s gold medal at the ongoing Paris Olympics 2024. A video clip of the PM applauding Nadeem from his residence after watching him on the television screen went viral on social media platforms.
In the 13-second clip video, one person was heard telling the PM repeatedly that it was his vision behind the success of Nadeem before the two shook hands with each other. Here’s the video:

The netizens of Pakistan didn’t took this well as they believed that Nadeem struggled on his own and went to Paris by dint of sheer determination and perseverance without the morale support of the government. Here are some of the reactions against Sharif.
