New Islamabad Airport Should be Named after Edhi – Jeremy McLellan, Hamza Ali Abbasi, & Others Tweet

New Islamabad International Airport has No Name. Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi rejected all three names that were proposed to him for new Islamabad International Airport. The three names suggested to the Prime Minister by his colleagues for the New Islamabad International Airport were Liaquat Ali Khan, Mohtarma Fatima Jinnah, and Gandhara. Shahid Khaqan Abbasi refused all the names “without giving any specific justification”.

Now the Twitterati’s have another suggestion for the name of New Islamabad Airport. They want it to be named after Abdul Sattar Edhi.

Let us look at some of the tweets.

Aftab Iqbal tweeted, “The new Islamabad International airport must be named after #Edhi saheb only! Retweet if you agree…”
