ISLAMABAD (Kashmir English): Azad Jammu and Kashmir(AJK) PM Anwarul Haq delivered a passionate and determined address reaffirming his commitment to the cause of Kashmir and expressing deep gratitude to the people and armed forces of Pakistan for their enduring support in the face of Indian aggression today, during his press conference in Islamabad.
In his speech, PM Haq underscored that without Jihad – in its ideological and strategic sense– no real success can be achieved. He warned against fear or hesitation in acknowledging this truth, adding that acting apologetically would hinder any real progress. “We must act strategically, but rooted in ideology,” he stated. “The sacrifices made by Pakistan and its people for the cause of Azad Kashmir and Indian-Occupied Jammu and Kashmir cannot be denied.”
He stressed that turning away from this cause would be tantamount to betrayal, particularly when India’s intelligence agency RAW continues to carry out attacks and targeted killings not just in the region but as far as Canada and Balochistan. “While their media boldly covers their operations, we’re worried about selecting the right words. There’s no need for sugarcoating. Our soldiers are giving their blood to protect the peace of Azad Kashmir,” he said.
Highlighting the scale of the modern warfare challenge, Haq pointed out that India had imposed a fifth-generation war on Azad Kashmir. “Thousands of fake accounts are spreading disinformation and hate to fracture our unity,” he warned. “This state will live on even if we don’t.”
He clarified that disagreement is part of democracy, but harming national security under its cover would not be tolerated. “This is a fight for the survival of the state,” he said, adding that the people of Pakistan and its military remain the strongest pillars of support for the Kashmiri people.
“The use of pellet guns and attempts to impose demographic changes in Kashmir will no longer be tolerated,” he affirmed. “The world must know this, and our countermeasures are well within the bounds of international law.”
In closing, he thanked the armed forces of Pakistan, especially Chief of Army Staff General Asim Munir, for their unwavering stance on the Kashmir issue, even in the most difficult times. “I can write it in my blood! The 240 million people of Pakistan and the Pakistan Army will stand by the Kashmiri cause like a rock,” he declared.
In conclusion, Prime Minister Chaudhry Anwarul Haq’s remarks underscore the urgency of addressing the Kashmir issue with unwavering resolve, strategic clarity, and national unity. His powerful acknowledgement of the sacrifices made by the Pakistan Army and the people reflects a deep-rooted commitment to safeguarding Azad Kashmir’s peace and identity.
By calling for collective responsibility and international advocacy, PM Haq has reiterated that the fight for justice in Kashmir is not only ongoing but essential to the region’s future stability and dignity.
