Protect GEO | BJP's Yashwant Sinha shoots a letter to Nawaz Sharif.

Army Chief called on DG ISI which shows that Army is fully behind the ISI.

Whatever man, the scribe, does have any idea of how ISI works? Come what may, they are the same. ISI Chief wears a khaki, man!
 
Why are Indian politicians so concerned about Geo?

What is their stake in the matter?

That politician was not even given a ticket to contest in the elections this time.
So that shows how seriously his own party takes him.
Its not about "India" but just one Indian.
And I am not sure if he co-owns geo :P
 
Yashwant Sinha writes to Nawaz Sharif, calls for security for Hamid Mir

NEW DELHI: Former external affairs minister Yashwant Sinha has urged the Pakistani government to provide all protection to TV journalist Hamid Mir, who received bullet injuries in an attack last week. "It would be unfortunate if any harm comes to Hamid Mir or Geo TV on your watch," Sinha said in a letter to Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif.


Describing Mir as a "fair and fearless journalist", Sinha said he was at the "forefront of the revival of courageous journalism in Pakistan." "Hamid Mir has alleged he was under threat both from the state and non-state actors and that elements in ISI may have had a hand in this attack."

Sinha also described as a "vindictive and retrograde step" the decision by the ISI and Pak defence ministry to withdraw Geo TV's licence.

On Thursday, Mir issued his first statement after the attack, saying, "I had been facing threats from both state and non-state actors, but some developments in the recent past convinced me to inform my colleagues about the elements who could most likely try to kill me." He went on to allege that the ISI was angry because of his coverage of the Balochistan issue and the criticism of the intelligence agency. "State agencies often use the name of non-state actors to threaten journalists so as to prevent them from speaking or writing the truth," his statement said.

Nawaz Sharif has constituted a committee to investigate the attack. He also went to see Mir in the hospital. After coming out, he kept mum on Geo TV's allegations that ISI was behind the attack. Army chief General Raheel Sharif called on ISI chief Zaheer-ul-Islam on Tuesday, signaling that the army was fully behind the ISI.

The attack on Mir has exposed the old fault-lines within the Pakistani establishment, as was first evident in the Pervez Musharraf case and now the Mir attack.

Sinha's letter though is likely to fan flames of conspiracy in Pakistan. Just this week, another Pakistani journalist, Imtiaz Alam, quit his TV show and splashed his resignation letter in Jang, a Geo publication. Alam also shared his resignation letter with an Indian newspaper, for which he was accused of conniving with Indians.

One word "Fuk Off" and don't mess with Pakistan.
 
Then tell Mr Sinha and BJP to keep their little nose out of our internal matters. They have no business nor a stake in Pakistan, nor do we like Indian voices in Pakistan.
Tell the same to yours too. Tell your politicians and your PM too to STFU and do not poke their noses in India's Internal matters too. In other words, "Dusro ko kehne se pehle, khud ke girebaan me dekho".
 
Lolz.,.. I found it funny especially Pakistanis reaction.. Now they can understand our anger when every tom dick and harry trying to advocate us about Indian muslims..

Allegations on GEO are straight-forward and any outsider is irrelevant in this respect. If Indians like GEO this much, they can open GEO in India and present their audience with its journalistic wealth.

On good note, Indian support to GEO is making their case worse.. for now we thank this Indian for making this effort!
 
If the channel is slightly pro India, does collaboration with Indian news channels (ABP) before Indo-Pak matches, plays bollywood, discuss bollywood....does that mean it is being funded by India?

Yaar fb pe salman srk k page pe aadhe comments toh tum pakistani maarte ho :lol:

Anyhow do whatever you what, but i guess India is being dragged into this without any concrete proofs
