PM Modi’s idea of 'pakoras selling' followed by Pakistani journalists for this shocking reason! See pic and video
PM Modi has created a stir on social media after giving the idea to the youth of the country that selling pakoras is also an employment a few months back. Some appreciated while many have criticised him for the idea. But, it seems like that Pakistani journalists have taken it seriously and followed the instructions of Prime Minister of India.
Recently, Pak journalists have made the protest against the large-scale terminations in media houses across Pakistan. Therefore, to show their protest, Pak journalists took the unique way to protest by setting up a stall to sell 'pakoras' (deep-dried snack) outside the Pakistan Parliament.
A group of sacked journalists has been set a pakora camp in capital Islamabad in front of the Parliament House. The reason behind this was to press the authorities to pay heed to their economic plight.

Also, Pakistan Federal Union of Journalists (PFUJ) president Afzal Butt said that "Yesterday, what had happened in Rawalpindi-Islamabad, in reaction to this, we decided that all the unemployed journalists will set up a pakora stall outside the Parliament House."
"The stall will be here today and tomorrow. My dear friends, you can all come here to the Parliament House. This is being done so that a solution can be reached concerning the lay-offs and terminations by the Pakistani media houses," he added.
