Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has disassociated itself from YouTubers Adil Raja and Haider Mehdi, who are continuously intensely engaged in doing propaganda against state institutions of Pakistan and maligning the honor of armed services.
While addressing a press conference along with Sher Afzal Marwat, PTI senior leader and former speaker of the National Assembly Asad Qaiser said that few overseas Pakistanis are engaged in running campaigns against the party and its leaders on social media and YouTube, urging the party workers and supporters to not fall victim to their propaganda.

He said, “The army is our institution, and we have never uttered a single word against the army.” He added that PTI founder Imran Khan always said, “This country is mine, and the army is also mine.”
Qaiser said, “We are struggling for the rule of the Constitution, civilian supremacy, strengthening parliament, and an independent judiciary.”
He said that the PTI has its own spokesperson and official media accounts, adding that the narrative disseminated through these mediums should be considered the narrative of the party.
