Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Central Information Secretary Shireen Mazari lashed out at critics who questioned her daughter's decision to vote for the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz in the Islamabad local body elections held today.
“Abusing me because my daughter cast her vote on her choice is fascistic. I am PTI but it does not obligate my family. Democracy means free choice,” Mazari said on Twitter.
Mazari’s daughter, Imaan Hazir, caused an uproar after she tweeted that she voted for the PML-N.

“Just an FYI: I voted for minorities and PML-N,” Imaan said on her Twitter account.
Further, Mazari’s daughter lashed out at PTI supporters saying, “You converted Islamabad into a public toilet for 'democracy' and you’re abusing my mother because I exercised my right to vote?"
Imaan also tweeted a picture of her after casting her vote and said her vote was "very different" from her father's.

This is not the first time, Mazari has had to face ‘abuse’ after her daughter’s tweets. Earlier this month, Imaan tweeted in favour of National Assembly Speaker Sardar Ayaz Sadiq leading to a “stream of abuse.”
Imaan also defended PML-N supporters saying she and her mother have never been abused by them. "I criticise PML-N as well but have never been abused by its supporters. Nor have they abused my mother," she said.
Polling for the first ever local government (LG) elections in the federal capital was held today.
