“They are still roaming free”: Javed Akhtar slams Pakistan in Lahore over 26/11 terror attacks

In a viral video from the seventh Faiz Festival organised in #Lahore in memory of celebrated Urdu poet Faiz Ahmed Faiz, the writer was seen making these comments in response to a member in the audience who told Akhtar to take with him a message of peace and tell Indians that Pakistan is "a positive, friendly and loving country". "We should not blame each other. It will solve nothing. The atmosphere is tense, that should be doused," the 78-year-old lyricist said.
