Maryam Nawaz’s political opponents along with the netizens have had a field day Sunday trolling the PML-N vice president, as several users pointed out what seemed to be an obvious Photoshop blunder in one of her tweets.

It all started when the PML-N vice president tweeted two photos: one of herself standing at the Keran bridge in Neelum Valley, surrounded by lush greenery, and another of her father, Nawaz Sharif, who appeared to be standing at the same location.

“[Our] ties with Kashmir are very old,” tweeted the PML-N vice president as the caption of the two images, suggesting that both she and the former premier had been to the same spot.

The netizens were quick to notice the obvious Photoshop error.

The similarities in the two photos, from the river to the background greenery and even the tree leaves, pointed to only one logical conclusion, which was that former Prime Minister Sharif’s image had been photoshopped onto the scenery.

Twitter, understandably, was not in the mood to let go of the gaffe.

Shoaib Taimur wondered who on Maryam’s social media team was the “genius” who advised her to make such an obvious blunder.

Masroor Badvi sarcastically advised Maryam to also have Nawaz crowned as the prime minister on Photoshop.

Prime Minister Imran Khan’s Focal person on Digital Media, Dr Arslan Khalid took the opportunity to tweet that Maryam seemed to be living in a social media bubble and was barely aware of realities outside it.

Dr Shahbaz Gill, known for his vitriol against the Opposition, took aim at Maryam Nawaz, like the rest tweeted.

“Fake trust deed, fake Calibri font, fake Qatari letter, fake revolution. Even the love for Kashmir is also fake. Mohtarma is truthful only when she’s quiet,” he tweeted.
