ISLAMABAD:

A highly anticipated new book, "The War That Changed Everything", co-authored by veteran journalist and former Caretaker Information Minister Murtaza Solangi and international affairs scholar Ahmed Hassan Al-Arabi, was officially launched on Monday.

The book contains startling revelations about the recent Pakistan-India tensions and provides a historical perspective on Indian state terrorism. Speaking at the book launching ceremony, Murtaza Solangi welcomed dignitaries, including the Ambassador of Azerbaijan, Khazar Farhadov and expressed Pakistan's gratitude to Azerbaijan for its unwavering support during the crisis.

Solangi described the publication not as a personal or professional achievement, but as a documentation of courage, sacrifice and national resilience. "This is not our story," he said, "It's a ledger of truth about 250 million brave people who stood firm in the face of deception. "The book traces the events beginning with the Pahalgam massacre on April 22, 2025, where 26 tourists were killed in Kashmir-a tragedy quickly weaponised in political narratives.

Solangi and co-author Ahmed Hassan argue that this incident was exploited to justify a broader agenda: framing Pakistan as the aggressor, demonising Kashmiri dissent, and suspending the Indus Waters Treaty. They present detailed evidence, from digital forensics to leaked files, exposing inconsistencies in the official Indian account, suggesting the crisis was manufactured to rally domestic support and deflect attention from internal challenges. "This is not a counter-narrative," Solangi asserted, "it is the narrative."

The book meticulously details the timeline, geopolitical consequences and Pakistan's strategic restraint, including the precision of Operation Bunyan Marsoos. He emphasised that the book is not a rebuttal to the Indian propaganda but an excavation of the truth.
