Pakistani Army Chief General Asim Munir spewes venom against India again

    Pakistani Army Chief General Asim Munir spewes venom against India again

    Sharpening his diatribe, Pakistani Army Chief General Asim Munir spewed venom against India again. This time, he was addressing the passing out parade at the Pakistan Air Force Academy in Risalpur. While addressing the passing out cadets, General Asim Munir once again raked up Kashmir conflict. Gen Munir also talked about aerial engagements between Indian and Pakistani air forces in 2019 post Pulwama attack. He said, “The professionalism in brilliance of Pakistan Air Force is being displayed in war against our arch-rivals and profoundly in Feb 2019 in short but several engagements against the misplaced calculus of our rival who mistook our initial restraint as weakness. We shall never allow anyone to challenge our territorial integrity, sovereignty and security of our beloved homeland. Regardless of what are adversaries say, another region where forces violently trampling over Human Rights and muzzling voices to self-determination is Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir. The silence of the world over Kashmir is deafening. But, we will continue to extend moral, political and diplomatic support to the people of Kashmir till the day they are empowered to exercise their rights of self-determination.” Ever since 1947, relations between India and Pakistan have been tense and Kashmir has been major of conflict. The countries have fought several wars and in 2019, the relations nosedived when the Article 370 was abrogated. India has reiterated its stance on numerous occasions that entire Jammu and Kashmir is integral part of the country.
