The Pakistan Army has strongly criticised the Indian military leadership for repeating what it described as \u201cdelusional, fabricated, and provocative propaganda,\u201d stating that the lies being fed to the Indian public and the international audience have turned the \u201cIndian military machine into a laughing stock.\u201d In a statement issued on Wednesday, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) expressed \u201cgrave concern\u201d that five months after Marka-e-Haq, and in the run-up to elections in Bihar and West Bengal, Indian military leaders have again begun echoing the same fabricated narratives they routinely repeat before every state election. The statement came in response to recent remarks by Indian military officials, including the Director General of Military Operations (DGMO), Lieutenant General Rajiv Ghai, who, according to NDTV, claimed that Pakistan suffered more than 100 military casualties during the May conflict. Refuting the claims, the ISPR clarified that a total of 53 individuals\u00a0 including 13 members of the armed forces and 40 civilians\u00a0 were martyred in Indian strikes during the clashes in May. Meanwhile, India\u2019s Western Army Commander, Lieutenant General Manoj Kumar Katiyar, claimed during a public event that \u201cPakistan has no capacity to fight India\u201d and even warned of launching \u201cOperation Sindoor 2.0\u201d in response to any future Pahalgam-type attack, reported The Times of India. New Delhi has repeatedly accused Pakistan of involvement in the deadly attack in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) that killed several tourists \u2014 an allegation strongly rejected by Islamabad, which has instead called for an impartial international investigation. The ISPR said it was deeply concerning that the military leadership of a nuclear-armed country was issuing such \u201cirresponsible and politically motivated statements,\u201d warning that \u201cunnecessary chest-thumping and jingoistic rhetoric could trigger dangerous consequences for peace and stability in South Asia.\u201d Highlighting contradictions in the Indian Army\u2019s press briefing, the ISPR said it was not even \u201cworthy of a formal response.\u201d \u201cThe Indian leadership is attempting to rewrite history through outlandish, Bollywood-style narratives,\u201d* the statement said, adding that the Indian Army and political leadership have yet to reconcile with the fact that they were \u201cdecisively defeated in Marka-e-Haq\u201d\u00a0 the May conflict between the two nuclear-armed neighbours during which Pakistan shot down seven Indian Air Force jets in retaliation to New Delhi\u2019s cross-border aggression. The military’s media wing also assailed India, saying that the world recognises New Delhi “as the true face of cross-border terrorism and the epicentre of regional instability, bent upon adventurism and hegemonism to the detriment of its people and its neighbours”. The ISPR’s statement further warned that Pakistan’s people and its armed forces are fully capable and committed to defend every inch of our territory with full resolve and “every act of aggression will be dealt with a swift, resolute and intense response that will be remembered by posterity”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
