Pakistani singer and actor Ali Zafar has applauded Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan’s address on the Pulwama terror attack, the worst in Jammu and Kashmir in decades. Zafar took to Twitter to share the video of the speech and told his followers to listen to it ’without any ego.’

“Listen with an open heart and mind devoid of ego, bias or hatred. If can’t, listen again after a few days in a moment of peace.#love #peace # #humanity #togetherness above all,” he wrote in his tweet. He also tweeted, “What a speech! @ImranKhanPTI.”
In his address, Khan denied Pakistan’s hand in the attack in which 40 CRPF jawans were killed. Pakistan-backed terror outfit Jaish-e-Mohammad claimed responsibility for the attack. Pakistan PM, however, said that he would act against the perpetrators of the Pulwama terror attack if India shares “actionable intelligence”.
