Pakistan’s Army Chief, General Asim Munir, declared on Monday that Pakistan is prepared to retaliate with full national resolve and military strength against any aggression or infringement upon its territorial sovereignty.
Munir asserted that the Pakistan Army is well-equipped to address the entire spectrum of threats and remains constantly prepared to respond effectively. He accused India of targeting individuals within Pakistan.
During his visit to the Sarian Sector of the Line of Control (LoC), General Munir received a briefing on the current situation along the border.
Last month, Pakistan army claimed to possess “credible evidence” linking “Indian agents” to the assassination of two Pakistani terrorists associated with Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Taiba in Sialkot and Rawalkot. India dismissed these allegations as “false and malicious” propaganda.
The spokesperson for India’s External Affairs Ministry, Randhir Jaiswal, stated in New Delhi that Pakistan’s accusations were baseless and part of its ongoing attempts to spread anti-India propaganda. Jaiswal warned that Pakistan will face consequences for its actions, emphasizing that blaming others for its own misdeeds is neither justifiable nor a solution.
Earlier in the day, General Munir, along with caretaker Prime Minister Anwaarul Haq Kakar and the self-styled Prime Minister of Kashmir, Anwarul Haq, visited Muzaffarabad to commemorate Kashmir Day, observed annually on February 5th in Pakistan.
