An organised campaign on social media has been launched against Khan and PTI after the recent martyrdom of Pakistan Army officers in the Lasbela military helicopter crash. Negative propaganda was also launched against the President of Pakistan, Dr Arif Alvi.
The PML-N’s media cell has allegedly created social media accounts that appear to belong PTI.
