The current Government has been a target of criticism from a huge amount of people. And on the top of that, PTV conducts a huge blunder while airing Imran Khan’s speech in Beijing.
Apparently, it was a typo but many people also believe that it was on purpose. Beijing, in the location slug, turned into ‘Begging’ by PTV. Now before you call it photoshopped, here is the video. Forward to 3:10 to satisfy any doubts.

Such a huge mistake brought out very mixed views of people. A mixture of criticism, anger, funny and embarrassment was seen.
BEGGING and the ↩️ sign …

Some people even stood for the sake of ‘righteousness.’

You’re truly an embarrassment to journalism. You find it funny to write begging for @ImranKhanPTI just bcoz your channel isn’t getting funds from gov. This shows how low you geo employees are. Utter shameless lady

Although PTV itself asked for apologies and said that action will be taken against the ones responsible.
Today, during a live address of the Prime Minister during his ongoing visit to China, a typographical error took place, which remained on screen for 20 seconds & later removed. This incident is regrettable. Strict action has been initiated under rules against concerned officials pic.twitter.com/df2Z8oib5u
