Imran Riaz Khan has once again come under criticism on social media over his political commentary and online content, with several analysts accusing him of promoting narratives in favour of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI).
According to critics, most of Imran Riaz Khan’s vlogs strongly support PTI and frequently target Pakistan’s state institutions, including the armed forces.
Social media users and political commentators claim that his videos often focus on criticism of the military and government policies, which they say has increased political polarisation online.
Imran Riaz Khan, who is currently living abroad, continues to share regular video commentary on political developments in Pakistan through social media platforms and YouTube.
His supporters describe him as an independent voice who raises questions on political issues and governance. However, his critics argue that his content reflects a clear political bias and promotes one-sided narratives.
Several analysts have also questioned whether Imran Riaz Khan should be considered an independent journalist or a political activist. They argue that his reporting and commentary consistently favour PTI and its leadership, making him more of a political campaigner than a neutral media figure.
The debate around digital journalism and political commentary in Pakistan has intensified in recent years, especially with the rise of YouTube-based reporting and opinion channels.
Media experts say social media influencers and vloggers now play a major role in shaping public opinion, often reaching millions of viewers without the editorial checks followed by traditional media organisations.
