Chief of Army Staff Gen Qamar Javed Bajwa has said that India is trying to shift global attention from its illegal Kashmir move to the Line of Control and Pakistan, and must not be given any chance to cover up its crimes in IOK.
The army chief made the statement during his visit to Bagh sector at LoC, where he spent Eidul Azha with troops, said a statement issued by the Inter-Services Public Relations on Monday.
“India is trying to shift the global attention away from Indian Occupied Jammu and Kashmir to LOC and Pakistan and for this purpose it can do anything. We must not give them any opportunity to cover up the crimes it is committing in IOJ&K,” he was quoted by the military’s media wing as saying.
Speaking to the troops during the visit, the army chief said the government has initiated multiple efforts to redress the Kashmir crisis. “Our resolve to solve the Kashmir dispute is as strong as desire for peace,” he added.
“Our religion teaches us peace but also to sacrifice and standing for the truth,” Gen Qamar said while reiterating, “We stand with our brothers and sisters in Kashmir and no matter how much time and whatever effort it takes, we will prove equal to the challenge, InshaAllah.”
