Uncle got offended when I asked for proof 👀 But finally, mystery solved behind the false claim that the Punjab government donated Rs 500 million (50 crore) Shaukat Khanum Hospital. It was fuelled by a cleverly altered video circulating in PMLN groups. This narrative misled figures from a Punjab Assembly member to a journalist and others online. When I asked questions or proof, a video was presented; it was IK's video that was used to make a claim that in reality, he never did. This is the perils of misinformation in this digital age, which highlights the importance of verifying everything against the primary source. The edit is perhaps not easy to detect. When I watched the original video available on IK's Facebook page, the manipulation was confirmed. The original footage is from Khan’s speech at the opening of the second Shaukat Khanum Hospital in Peshawar. Khan described how, in 1989, Nawaz Sharif’s Punjab government set aside 50 crore for a cancer hospital to be built by the gov but deemed it unviable and abandoned the effort. Khan cited this to highlight how he was told his dream was impossible to achieve and how he overcame these challenges to build this hospital. The manipulated video cut out bits of what he said and twisted his words to suggest a donation that never happened!
