After
being
slammed
by
pro-Pakistani
supporters
for
allegedly
cheering
for
war,
Pakistan's
Human
Rights
Minister
Shireen
Mazari
and
Pakistani
actor
Armeena
Khan
have
urged
UNICEF
to
remove
Bollywood
actress
Priyanka
Chopra
Jonas
as
the
UN
Goodwill
Ambassador.
"@UNICEF
needs
to
remove
Priyanka
Chopra
as
its
ambassador
immediately
in
the
wake
of
her
support
for
Indian
mly
(military)
and
rogue
Modi
govt.
Otherwise
it
makes
a
mockery
of
such
appointments.
UNICEF
should
really
be
more
careful
on
whom
it
appoints
to
these
honorary
positions,"
Mazari
had
earlier
tweeted.
During
a
recent
event
in
Los
Angeles,
a
Pakistani
girl
called
out
the
actor
and
accused
her
of
encouraging
war.
She
said
it
was
not
in
good
taste
when
the
actor
cheered
for
the
Indian
army
despite
being
an
ambassador
of
goodwill
for
UNICEF.
She
said
like
her,
millions
of
people
in
Pakistan
supported
the
actor's
movies
and
they
were
disappointed
when
she
wanted
a
nuclear
war.
Priyanka
explained
that
she
did
not
mean
to
hurt
anyone
but
was
only
feeling
patriotic.
She
added
that
she
was
not
looking
forward
to
war
and
that
she
has
many
friends
in
Pakistan.
Pakistani
actress
Armeena
Khan
and
her
fiance
have
also
asked
UNICEF
for
the
removal
of
Priyanka
as
the
ambassador.
The
Pakistani
actress
accused
Priyanka
of
supporting
Pulwama
war
through
her
tweets.
She
stated
in
her
tweet,
"We
write
to
express
our
disappointment
at
the
continued
relationship
between
UNICEF
and
its
Goodwill
Ambassador
Mrs
Priyanka
Chopra-Jonas.
She
brought
the
core
values
of
UNICEf,
care,
respect,
integrity,
trust
and
accountability,
into
disrepute."
For
the
uninitiated,
Priyanka
put
out
a
tweet
that
read
Jai
Hind
and
#IndianArmedForces
after
the
Indian
Army's
alleged
surgical
strikes
on
Pakistani
terror
camps
after
the
deadly
Pulwama
attacks.
It
is
to
be
noted
that
Priyanka
is
the
daughter
of
an
army
officer.
Her
father
was
a
doctor
with
the
armed
forces.
However,
this
bashing
of
the
actor
made
netizens
lose
their
cool
as
they
took
to
Twitter
and
slammed
the
Pakistani
actress
and
accused
her
of
trying
to
gain
limelight.
