Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chairman Barrister Gohar has clarified that Imran Khan does not personally approve every piece of text and video that is posted from his X account.
In a an interview earlier on Tuesday, Gohar had said that every post not being approved was a concern. However, he added that a recent tweet about 1971 had been made in a political context and had nothing to do with the army.
He later added a tweet saying that the account indeed belonged to the party but “khan sab does not go through each word of a tweet”.
“And that our comparison of 1971 was in political contest - party getting majority but no session called; leaders disqualified; seats reduced in recounting and then majority converted into minority and the. Session called. So see what happened to the country in 1971 which is being done now,” he wrote.

“This is our narrative - period - We are not “Awami League and Khan sab is not SM,” he added.
The clarification comes after backlash over a tweet from Imran Khan’s offical account on X which included a video about 1971.
“Every Pakistani should study the Hamood ur Rahman Commission Report and get to know who was the true traitor, General Yahya Khan or Sheikh Mujibur Rahman,” the tweet had been captioned.
