ISPR: We have noted with grave concern the *delusional, provocative and jingoistic statements* coming from the highest levels of the Indian security establishment. These irresponsible statements indicate a renewed attempt at *fabricating arbitrary pretexts* for aggression – a prospect which might lead to serious consequences for peace and stability in South Asia.
For decades, India has benefitted from *playing the victim card* and painting Pakistan in negative light, while *stoking violence* and *perpetrating terrorism* in South Asia and beyond. This narrative has been sufficiently debunked and now *the world recognises India as the true face of cross-border terrorism* and the *epi-centre of regional instability*.
Earlier this year, the Indian aggression against Pakistan brought two nuclear powers to the brink of a major war. However, India seems to have forgotten the *wreckage of its fighter jets* and the *wrath of Pakistan’s long range vectors*.
Suffering from collective amnesia, India now seems to be *aching for the next round* of confrontation.
In the face of highly provocative statements of the Indian Defence Minister and its Army and Air Chiefs, we caution that a future conflict might lead to *cataclysmic devastation*. In case a fresh round of hostilities is triggered, Pakistan shall not hold back. We shall *resolutely respond, without any qualms or restraint*.
Those *seeking to establish a new normal* must know that Pakistan has established a *new normal of response* , which will be swift, decisive and destructive. In the face of unwarranted threats and reckless aggression, the people and the Armed Forces of Pakistan have the capability and resolve to *take the fight to every nook and corner of the enemy’s territory*. This time we shall shatter the myth of geographic immunity, hitting the farthest reaches of the Indian territory.
As for the talk of *erasing Pakistan* from the map, India must know that if situation comes, *the erasure will be mutual*.
