Tonight on The Blue Newsroom, the battle over former prime minister Imran Khan’s health takes a dramatic turn. His legal team warns of a permanent blood clot and vision reduced to just 15%. But a government medical board says otherwise, claiming his eyesight is improving to 6/9.

Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi breaks his silence, alleging that family interference by Aleema Khan delayed specialised care for political leverage. Is this a genuine medical crisis, or a high-stakes optical illusion in Pakistan’s power politics?
