I spoke to PIA officials. Talked to CEO, country manager, airport manager, everyone. He said he would do anything for me.
50 percent discount offer..!
When I told the officials that 6 people were traveling with me. 500-600 kilos of luggage is too much. Then he asked for 50 percent discount. To this I said that it would be cheaper if I brought 4 more people in exchange for 50 percent discount. I told them to let me go for free or take the full money. I declined the discount offer.
He went to Pakistan and praised India
Mumbai-born Zakir Naik claimed that when a non-Muslim sees him in India, they let him go for free. 'PIA- Pakistan International Airlines, if any non-Muslim sees me in India, he will let me go for free. This is India. When a non-Muslim sees Doctor Saheb (Zakir Naik), he loses 1000-2000 kg of weight.
Zakir Naik angry at Pakistan
Zakir Naik got angry and said, 'This is Pakistan. I am a guest of the government. My visa says state guest and your PIA CEO says he will give me 50 percent discount. I am very sad that I am coming to Pakistan. Zakir Naik is a government guest and he cannot lose 300 kg weight, he is saying that he will give 50 percent discount. I don't want your discount. I will bring 4-6 more people and my luggage will arrive.
