ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief’s wife Reham Khan responded to British newspaper Daily Mail’s story about her varsity degree with a tweet which shows how angry she is at the story and its treatment by Pakistani media.
Reham Khan maintained that if someone tries to raise voice on country’s real issues, a selected group of people attack the person but she does not either fear the lobby today nor will be deterred by such dirty tactics.
Reham Khan however changed the name of institution on her official website.
Earlier, a British newspaper ‘Daily Mail’ raised question over Reham Khan’s degree in Broadcast Journalism by saying that the North Lindsey college has never offered Broadcast Journalism course which Reham claimed that she was a postgraduate.
The 42 year-old on her personal website states that she won her post as a reporter on the BBC regional show South Today after starting a postgraduate course ‘in Broadcast Journalism at North Lindsay College’, in Scunthorpe, Lincolnshire.
“We do not have anyone by those names or date of birth having attended this college,’ says a spokesman. ‘We have never done a degree in broadcast journalism,” the college said.
This morning is a great example of why I have never picked up the Daily Mail & why I don’t watch Pakistani TV channels.

The timing of this baseless malicious propaganda is very suspicious. What else is happening in the UK?
