[DAWN] Chief of the Army Staff (COAS) General Qamar Javed Bajwa on Sunday visited the Line of Control (LoC) in Haji Pir Sector of Azad Jammu and Kashmire and reiterated support for the Kashmiris "rightful political struggle for right to self determination."After being briefed on the situation along the LoC, ceasefire violatons and operational readiness of the formation, the COAS appreciated the operational preparedness and high morale of troops.
According to a statement by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) ─ the military's media affairs wing ─ the COAS said India had unleashed its aggression and frustration on the people of India-held Kashmire as well as Pak villages along the LoC and Working Boundary.
However,
it's easy to be generous with someone else's money...
he made it clear that Pakistain Army would keep its response purely in the military domain in accordance with its values.
"The violence perpetuated by the Indian forces in held Kashmire is state-sponsored terrorism by all definitions," he said.
"This violence riles up passions on this side of the LoC, as the people of Pakistain cannot remain indifferent to the barbaric treatment meted out to defenceless Kashmiris, including women and kiddies," he added.
