A Pakistani media channel was heavily trolled ‘on social media after it incorrectly typed ‘Beijing’ as ‘Begging’ while live-telecasting an event from China that featured Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan.
Pakistan Television Corporation (PTV) broadcasting channel was broadcasting the show live when it goofed up the dateline as typed ‘Beijing’ wrongly as ‘Begging’. Ironically, as the stated by The Indian Express, Khan during his visit to China had sought for financial support from Beijing.
The news channel immediately noticed goof up and addressed the issue. They took to Twitter to later clarify that it was a “typographical error” and that they have initiated “strict action” against those responsible for the act.

Here are some hilarious reactions to the gaffe:
