Pakistan’s T20 victory over India is a ‘victory for Islam’, says Pak Minister Sheikh Rashid. Watch
Pakistan’s Home Minister Sheikh Rashid has described his country’s victory against India in the World T20 match played in Dubai as a ‘victory of Islam’. Rashid, who is known for making strange statements, said that Muslims across the world, including India, were supporting Pakistan during the match.
“For Pakistan, today’s India-Pakistan match was the final,” the Pakistani minister can be heard saying in a video uploaded on his personal Twitter handle.
Apart from his message, Rashid also tweeted videos of people bursting crackers celebrating his team’s victory in the match.
The Pakistani victory comes at a time when diplomatic relations between the two countries are at a low level.
India has cut bilateral cricket ties with Pakistan after the Mumbai terror attack, which claimed hundreds of lives.
