Pakistan’s Defence Minister Khawaja Asif has criticized Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi over recently received foreign awards, alleging that the honors were fabricated, generated using low-quality artificial intelligence, and riddled with spelling mistakes.
In a post shared on X (formerly Twitter), Asif claimed that one of the awards was introduced only days before Modi’s visit, calling the development “fabricated and embarrassing.” He alleged that the award certificates contained numerous typographical and spelling errors, which he attributed to the use of inexpensive AI tools.
The defence minister further claimed that Modi was the first and only recipient of these awards, arguing that the recognition lacked credibility. According to Asif, the Indian prime minister was attempting to manufacture international recognition rather than earn it through genuine diplomatic achievements.
Asif also described India’s efforts to promote Modi’s global image as “deeply embarrassing,” suggesting that the awards were part of a publicity exercise rather than authentic international honors.
The remarks come amid ongoing political tensions between Pakistan and India, with leaders from both countries frequently exchanging criticism over regional and international issues.
The Indian government has not publicly responded to Khawaja Asif’s latest comments at the time of writing. The authenticity of the allegations regarding the awards and the claimed AI-generated errors has not been independently verified.
