ISLAMABAD: The nation will express full solidarity with the oppressed Kashmiri brethren in the Indian Held Kashmir (IHK) while celebrating the Defence Day of Pakistan on Friday (today). Prime Minister Imran Khan took the decision in view of the worst human rights situation after the revocation of the special status of IHK by the Modi-led Indian government.
Prime Minister Imran Khan said that the Pakistani nation was fully alive to any kind of misadventure by the enemy and was prepared to give the enemy the fullest possible response.
“I have informed the world that Pakistan does not want war, but at the same time, Pakistan cannot remain oblivious to the challenges posed to its security and integrity. We are prepared to give the enemy the fullest possible response,” the prime minister said in his message to the nation on Defence and Martyrs Day being observed on Friday.
He said that the armed forces, the Pakistani nation, the political leadership, both the houses of Parliament, the mainstream and social media all were in one voice against India’s illegal, unilateral, reckless and coercive attempt to alter the disputed status of Indian occupied Kashmir.
He said September 6, the Defence Day of Pakistan, stood out in the history of Pakistan as a symbol of enduring display of unity, indomitable courage and unmatched sacrifices by our gallant soldiers.
