Naila Jaffri refuses government aid for cancer treatment protesting Jindal's arrival in Pakistan

[WebGuru]

Last month the news of actor Naila Jaffri battling cancer took social media by storm. While a few online portals misreported her being completely bedridden, Jaffri was quick to clear the air. She said that she was suffering from ovarian cancer which is now in its third stage but she is regularly getting her chemotherapy done and is in high spirits.

However, she remained open to the option of any government assistance in receiving her expensive treatments.

In a recent turn of events, Naila has decided to forego the financial support she was about to get from the government as a protest.

Speaking to The Express Tribune, the actor said that she had applied to get help from President Mamnoon Hussain’s Artist Welfare Fund and a cheque of rupees 500,000 is in the process of being issued to her but she will no longer accept it since the government has allowed an Indian tycoon in Pakistan with a no-police-inquiry visa.

“I cannot accept a dime from the government that entertains people from the very country that has been plotting against us our interests and our people,” she told The Express Tribune in a telephonic conversation while referring to Indian tycoon Sajjan Jindal’s recent arrival in Pakistan.

“I am glad that the government decided to offer me help but I really can’t accept this fund under present circumstances. The love, respect and prayers I have received from my people when they came to know of my illness is unimaginable and I won’t do anything that hurts their feelings. ”

I respect her decision and her love for the country/people but Naila should take the govt aid she need the support for her treatment. These corrupt politicians play their behind the door games all the time for their own personal gains they don't care what people think about them and their decisions.

Surely can't be a publicity stunt when you have bloody cancer!

Japan and USA are friends now after that Atom bomb.

UK, France, Germany are friends now after those bitter wars that killed millions.

Why can't India and Pak be friends? Because we are morons. 2 cats (India/Pak) fighting while monkey(China) benefits.

We are friends unless you're delusional patriots from both side of the border.

Appreciate Naila's stance. Shows she is a patriot.

However, her health comes forst and she should accept the financial aid.

It happens when the majority of the population lacks basic necessities of life and is illiterate.

This takes drama-queening to a whole new level. What does she think business tycoons do? At worst spend a few lakhs on their hotel and other expenses and depart. At best pump in a few thousand crores to set up a local industry. In any case Pakistan makes money.

Does she believe Jindal will try to bomb something?

Jindal currently is serving as a bridge between Modi and Nawaz it's a known fact.

And you think it's a bad idea for the PMs of India and Pakistan to communicate?

 

[RickyG]

Can someone explain to me why Naila Jaffri does not like Sajjan Jindal? Or is it India that she does not like? Is there a backstory or some history between Naila and Sajjan/India? I feel like I am missing something.

Yea because Nawaz loves building personal relationships instead of country to country relationship at national level. His Saudi buddies are another example they came to rescue him multiple times...

So your idea of a good PM is someone who does not communicate with leaders of foreign countries, especially neighboring countries. Interesting...

there's no real friends among countries, everyone is using each other for benefits
if india pakistan could become friends they wouldn't have separated in the first place.

It's her life.
But merit less protest.

There is no backstory, it is just <i>drama bazzi</i>. Jindal has previously acted as a channel of communication between the Indian and Pakistani PMs, which intelligent people would consider a good thing.
