We know how to defend our country, PM Imran tells India

Pakistan expects international community to force India to end its terrorism, premier tweets

Prime Minister Imran Khan on Saturday expressed his firm resolve to defend the motherland, saying that “let there be no doubt anywhere that we know how to defend our country and will continue to do so with our combined national resolve”.

The statement came hours after Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi and DG Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) Major General Babar Iftikhar, in a joint media conference, categorically stated that India was sabotaging the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) and is supporting terrorism in Pakistan.

The country's top diplomat and the military spokesperson presented a dossier detailing India's involvement in terror attacks in Pakistan during the media conference.

Multiple video clips and audio clips, along with documents, were presented during the media conference of Indian handlers and terrorists communicating with each other and Indian intelligence handlers passing on instructions to terrorists in Pakistan.

"We have provided irrefutable evidence of India's state-sponsored terrorism inside Pak. Details of financial & material support & Indian state's direct involvement in terrorism have been given to the world which, in the face of this evidence, cannot remain indifferent or silent," the premier wrote on his official Twitter account.

Maj-Gen Iftikhar, the military spokesperson earlier during the news conference, had said the recent upsurge in violence in Pakistan is a direct consequence of New Delhi's "intensified engagements with all brands of terrorists, sub-nationalists and dissident’s operating against Pakistan".

For sabotaging CPEC, India raised a militia of 700 militants to conduct terror activities in Balochistan, he said. "A commission comprising 24 members was created which included 10 RAW operatives. $60 million dollars were dedicated for this force."

He added that the Indian mission in Afghanistan has paid handsome amounts to sub-nationalists under the garb of humanitarian assistance and projects. The spokesperson also gave details of the transactions for such activities.

Besides funding terrorists and their activities in Pakistan, India also provided direct weapon and equipment support to terrorists in Pakistan.

FM Qureshi said the evidences presented by Pakistan provide a concrete proof of Indian financial and material sponsorship of multiple terrorist organisations, including UN designated terrorist outfits — Jammat-ul-Ahrar (JUA), Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) and Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP).

Pakistan is presenting this Dossier to UN, OIC, P5 Countries, and others, he added.
