Asaduddin Owaisi roasts Pakistan Army chief Asim Munir: ‘Stupid jokers. Nakal ke liye…'
Asaduddin Owaisi of the All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen has mocked Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Army chief Asim Munir over a fake image being circulated as part of 'Operation Bunyan', saying that 'copying requires brains", something Pakistan lacks. Addressing the Indian diaspora in Kuwait, Owaisi, who is part of Bharatiya Janata Party MP Baijayant Panda led-all-party delegation for global outreach against terrorism, on Monday slammed Pakistan for sharing an old 2019 photo from a Chinese Army drill and presenting it as a recent military success against India. The AIMIM MP said the image was wrongly gifted to the Pakistani prime minister as a symbol of victory. Urging people not to take Pakistan's claims seriously, he said they don't even deserve a 'pinch of salt.' 'Yesterday, the Pakistani Army chief gifted a photo to the Pakistani PM Shehbaz stupid jokers want to compete with India, they had given a photograph of a 2019 Chinese Army drill claiming it is a victory over India. This is what Pakistan indulges in. Nakal karne ke liye akal chahiye'...inke pass akal bhi nahi hai (it takes brains to copy... and they don't even have that). Whatever Pakistan is saying, do not take even with a pinch of salt,' Asaduddin Owaisi said.

‘Nakal karne ke liye akal chahiye': Asaduddin Owaisi's swipe at Pakistan over fake photo of ‘Operation Bunyan'
All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi took a swipe at Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir, over a fake image of 'Operation Bunyan', stating that 'nakal karne ke liye akal chahiye' (it requires brains to imitate well). Calling the two 'stupid jokers', he cautioned against believing anything that Pakistan says, 'not even with a pinch of salt'. 'Yesterday, the Pakistani Army chief gifted a photo to the Pakistani PM Shehbaz Sharif…these stupid jokers want to compete with India, they had given a photograph of a 2019 Chinese Army drill claiming it is a victory over India. This is what Pakistan indulges in…'Nakal karne ke liye akal chahiye…inke pass akal bhi nahi hai'…whatever Pakistan is saying, do not take even with a pinch of salt,' Owaisi said while speaking to the Indian diaspora in Kuwait. The Pakistani Army chief presented a framed photograph to Sharif, falsely claiming that it showcased Islamabad's victory over India. However, the image was actually of a 2019 Chinese Army drill. #WATCH | During an interaction with the Indian diaspora in Kuwait, AIMIM MP Asaduddin Owaisi says, ' Yesterday, the Pakistani Army chief gifted a photo to the Pakistani PM Shehbaz Sharif…these stupid jokers want to compete with India, they had given a photograph of a 2019… — ANI (@ANI) May 26, 2025 Owaisi strongly advocates for Pakistan's re-inclusion on FATF grey list The AIMIM chief further called for Pakistan's re-inclusion on the FATF grey list, criticising the country's involvement in the barbaric April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, where terrorists shot dead 26 people, mostly tourists. He said tighter financial scrutiny against Pakistan was the need of the hour as it would be expending the $2 billion IMF loan to strengthen its military and terror groups. 'Pakistan must be brought back on the FATF grey list. The importance of the FATF grey list is that there will be huge scrutiny on that nation when you do money transactions,' Owaisi said. 'It is a fact that Pakistan uses the Middle East hawala or money laundering to sponsor terror groups against India…bringing Pakistan in FATF is very important because…the 2 billion loan which the IMF is giving will be used by the Pakistani military,' he added. Pakistan's misinformation campaign During India's Operation Sindoor, Pakistan's attempt to execute its malicious misinformation campaign came to the forefront. Presenting a fake photograph of Chinese drills, claiming victory against India, is not the first instance. During the conflict, Pakistan reportedly tried to spread bogus claims like the destruction of India's S-400 air defence system, which was rebuffed by Wing Commander Vyomika Singh. 'Pakistan has also attempted to execute a continued malicious misinformation campaign, with claims of destruction of the Indian S-400 system, destruction of airfields at Surat and Sirsa… India unequivocally rejects these false claims being spread by Pakistan,' Singh had said during an Operation Sindoor press briefing.

‘Stupid Jokers...': Owaisi Trolls Pakistan Over Sharif-Munir Memento Blunder
AIMIM MP Asaduddin Owaisi has mocked Pakistani Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif and General Asim Munir over the fake picture of 'Operation Bunyan', saying that it requires brains to copy. Addressing the Indian community in Kuwait, he urged them not to trust anything Pakistan claims. "Yesterday, the Pakistani Army chief gifted a photo to the Pakistani PM Shehbaz Sharif. These stupid jokers want to compete with India; they have given a photograph of a 2019 Chinese Army drill, claiming it is a victory over India. This is what Pakistan indulges in. 'Nakal karne ke liye akal chahiye'... inke pass akal bhi nahi hai'... whatever Pakistan is saying, do not take even with a pinch of salt," ANI quoted Owaisi as saying. His remarks came after an image of Pakistani Prime Minister Sharif and General Munir went viral on social media, where the two were seen holding a photo of a military operation to commemorate "Operation Bunyan-ul-Marsoos". The photo was, however, actually from a 2019 Chinese People's Liberation Army military drill. Asim Munir reportedly hosted a high-profile dinner last week during which he presented the edited image to Sharif. Indians trolled the Pakistanis, accusing Islamabad of using 'Canva" and 'Photoshop" to 'win" the war against India after its failed attempts during the recent conflict. 'Pakistan's latest masterpiece: Shehbaz Sharif presents a photoshopped painting from a 2019 Chinese drill to Failed Marshal Asim Munir. Guess when you can't win on the battlefield, you win in Canva,' a user wrote on X. In the early hours of May 7, the Indian Armed Forces launched Operation Sindoor to avenge the horrific terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, on April 2, in which 26 civilians were killed. The operation targeted nine terror sites and infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoK), in which over 100 terrorists were killed.

'Nakal karne ke liye akal chahiye': AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi's jibe at Pakistani PM Shehbaz Sharif gifting fake image of 'Operation Bunyan' to Asim Munir
NEW DELHI: AIMIM MP Asaduddin Owaisi reacted to Pakistani PM Shehbaz Sharif gifting fake image of 'Operation Bunyan' to Asim Munir and said that it "requires brains to copy". He advised against taking Pakistan's claims seriously, "not even with a pinch of salt". Speaking to Indian diaspora in Kuwait, he said, " Yesterday, the Pakistani Army chief gifted a photo to the Pakistani PM Shehbaz stupid jokers want to compete with India, they had given a photograph of a 2019 Chinese Army drill claiming it is a victory over India. This is what Pakistan indulges in...'Nakal karne ke liye akal chahiye'...inke pass akal bhi nahi hai'...whatever Pakistan is saying, do not take even with a pinch of salt. " The reaction came after an image went viral on social media where the Pakistani PM was seen presenting an image to newly-appointed field marshal Gen. Asim Munir to commemorate "Operation Bunyan-ul-Marsoos". The photo, however, was of a 2019 Chinese rocket artillery drill. The incident drew a myriad reactions from netizens, especially at a time when the central government has taken concrete steps to bust the Pakistani propaganda against India, especially on Operation Sindoor. Operation Sindoor was launched by armed forces targeting nine terror sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. This came in retaliation to Pahalgam terror attack on April 22 that killed 26 people.
