Noreen once again clarifies she has not been crying

The woman behind the viral trend ‘Noreen ro rahi hai’ has once again clarified that she is, in fact, not crying.

Noreen Farooq Khan, a disgruntled member of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, had been in the news after a journalist said she was protesting as a newcomer (Barrister Gohar Khan) had been made the party’s chairman.

The use of the journalist’s words, along with the relatively unknown name of the subjuect had created a social media trend that had lasted for days.

However, the woman has once again told the media that she is actually doing the opposite of crying.

Khan turned up at the Supreme Court on Friday as a bench took up an appeal against the bat symbol being restored to the PTI. She was one of the parties in the original case filed in the Election Commission of Pakistan as well.

When jokingly asked by a reporter if she was still crying, a clearly emotional Noreen said she had always been laughing.

Asked why she seemed sentimental, Noreen said that she was sad at the state of the party. However, she said she did not care if the bat symbol stayed with the party or not.

Noreen also added that she had not received a letter of termination from the party at any point.
