He went on to talk about Pakistani children who know about the West but have no insight about Islamic history, it’s heroes and how Muslims rose to prominence.
He further spoke about a Turkish series depicting the Ottoman Empire and said, “We will translate this serial to Urdu as it sheds light on the rise of the Ottoman Empire and its rule over half Europe.”
PM Khan also talked about the influence of Western culture and teachings on our people who do not pay much heed towards our own history.
