Pakistan Army Chief General Asim Munir has dismissed recent statements by the Indian military as baseless and provocative. He assured that any hostile action against Pakistan would face a full-throttle response. His remarks came during the 267th Corps Commanders’ Conference held at General Headquarters in Rawalpindi.
Pakistan Army Stands Ready
The military leadership took serious note of India’s reckless statements, calling them irresponsible and harmful to regional stability. General Munir highlighted that such remarks reflect India’s growing frustration and an attempt to distract from internal issues and human rights violations in Indian-occupied Kashmir (IoK).
He made it clear that the Pakistan Army is fully prepared to defend the nation’s sovereignty. Any act of aggression, he warned, will be met with a strong and decisive response.
Situation Along LoC and Kashmir Solidarity
The conference also reviewed security conditions along the Line of Control (LoC) and the Working Boundary near Sialkot. The army reaffirmed Pakistan’s unwavering support for the Kashmiri people, condemning the ongoing human rights abuses in IoK.
Recognizing Kashmir as a serious threat to regional peace, the commanders stressed the importance of international intervention in addressing the violations against the Kashmiri population.
Concerns Over Afghan-Based Threats
The meeting also expressed grave concern over the continued use of Afghan soil by the banned group Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) to carry out attacks against Pakistan.
The military leadership urged Afghanistan’s interim government to take concrete steps against terrorist groups instead of issuing mere denials. Pakistan, they asserted, will take all necessary measures to defend its people from these threats.
