What Happened to the Others Who Fell from the Lifter?

Pakistan Tehrik-i-Insaf (PTI) Chief Imran Khan Tuesday sustained injuries on his head and back after falling from a lifter while climbing up the stage to address an election rally in Lahore . He fell along with several PTI workers but unfortunately no one seemed to care about them. Even during the live interview from the hospital bed Imran Khan did not show any concern for them.
This reminds me of the World Cup 92 final ceremony. Pakistan won the Cup but in the live interview at the final ceremony that followed IK dedicated the trophy to the Shaukat Khanum Hospital. There was not a single word about the efforts and contribution of his team mates some of whom – Miandad, Inzamul Haq and Wasim Akram – had excelled with the bat and ball!
Now again Imran Khan and PTI leaders have shown similar behavior. They have talked about the injury to Imran but have not bothered to describe the condition of those who fell along with him. Besides the PTI members, TV anchors, politicians and others are also responsible for this serious omission.
