Earthquake remarks taken ‘out of context’: Firdous clarifies non-serious remarks
“The Information SAPM’s remarks on the earthquake were insensitive, absolutely inappropriate and most certainly had nothing to do with govt viewpoint. Human suffering can never be made light of,” the minister said.Terrible news of the earthquake - saddened by the loss of precious lives and destruction. Shameful and unforgivable for anyone to show insensitivity to this tragedy when precious human lives have been lost.

Firdous Ashiq Awan's statement on earthquake being caused by Tabdeeli is insensitive and plain "stupid". The Tabdeeli should have been providing aid and assistance and not making a mockery of victims of the earthquake in which people lost lives.
This is sadly the real tabdeeli! — Ali Moeen Nawazish (@am_nawazish) September 24, 2019
Firdos Ashiq awan must resign, Pakistan deserves a better face with some sense.

19 people dead, 300 injured. And this is what Firdous Ashiq Awan has to say. https://t.co/FIxC8EjbO4
