Minhas denounces Indian Army chief’s provocative statement

MUZAFFARABAD: (Parliament Times) Strongly condemning the provocative statement of Indian army chief the AJK Minister for Information, Tourism and IT Raja Mushtaq Minhas termed it highly coward and irresponsible.
In a statement here on Sunday Minhas said that it all shows that India had failed to defeat the spirit of Kashmiris for their struggle for inalienable right to self-determination. He said India had no option than to give Kashmiris complete freedom from its yoke. He reminded India that Pakistan is an atomic power and its armed forces are rated as one of the best in the world.
However, the Minister observed that wars only bring destruction and former subcontinent can’t afford a war at this stage. He said the dream of both India and Pakistan of progress and prosperity could only be achieved through peace in the region. He said the entire nation stands with its armed forces in case there was any adventurism by India. We will make AJK graveyard of Indian forces, he warned. He also underlined the need of unity and solidarity to counter the enemy’s nefarious designs.
Meanwhile paying rich tributes to the armed forces who were martyred in North Waziristan Minhas expressed hope that their sacrifices would go a long way in rooting out the terrorism from the country. He also expressed sympathy with the bereaved families.
