Prime Minister Imran Khan on Saturday apologises publicly for wrong attributing a poem to renowned poet Allam Iqbal poem on twitter. The Prime Minister had tweeted a poem earlier in the day with caption: “This poem by Iqbal reflects how I try to lead my life. I urge our youth to understand and absorb the poem of the great Iqbal and I guarantee them that it will release their great God-given potential that we all possess as His greatest creation Ashraf ul Mukhluqat.”

However, a few fans immediately responded to the tweet and corrected Khan.

Later, he appologiesed publically on social media platform saying, “I stand corrected - this is not Allama Iqbal's poem but the message conveyed is what I have stood by and tried to follow and if our youth absorbs this message it will release their great God- given potential that all of us possess as His greatest creation Ashraf ul Mukhluqat.
