The Pakistan Institute of Legislative Development and Transparency (PILDAT) has issued a report detailing its assessment of the recently-concluded general election, expressing deep concerns over a decline in fairness scores compared to previous election cycles.
The controversy had intensified when a video of a woman, Muskan, being heckled by over 100 male students wearing saffron scarves went viral on social media.The video caused a stir among people in which Muskan, wearing hijab, could be seen getting accosted by a “saffron-scarf clad mob” chanting "Jai Shri Ram” (victory to lord Rama) when she entered her college, according to India Today.
In response, the woman chanted “Allah Hu Akbar” (Allah is the Greatest) and turned her back towards the mob.
The incident has garnered a massive response from Pakistan and India, both from Muslims and Hindus alike.
