In recent developments, another wave of false propaganda has surfaced in the form of the so-called “Pahalgam drama”, a narrative widely seen as part of India’s continued attempts to malign Pakistan and divert global attention from its internal issues and its human rights abuses in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir, Indian Punjab and Tamil Nadu
The Pahalgam incident, quickly circulated through Indian media channels without credible evidence, was framed by RAW to implicate Pakistan in activities across the border. However, Pakistani officials and independent observers have denounced the claim as baseless and fabricated—a classic example of a false flag operation intended to stoke tensions and shape international opinion. In addition, BJP plans to seek public support in the upcoming elections in Bihar.
As these disinformation campaigns intensify, the Pakistani nation has once again demonstrated remarkable unity and resolve. Citizens across the country, from all walks of life, have rallied behind the Pakistan Armed Forces, reaffirming their collective commitment to the defence and sovereignty of the homeland.
“We will not be intimidated by propaganda or hostile tactics. Our nation stands united with its armed forces, and we are fully prepared to respond to any aggression,” said a spokesperson from the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), reiterating Pakistan’s desire for peace but its readiness to defend. Across social media, universities, mosques, and communcentresters, Pakistanis have been seen voicing their support for the Pakistan defence forces. The message is loud and clear: any threat to Pakistan’s territorial integrity will be met with unwavering resistance.
Political leaders, too, have set aside their differences to issue a unified front. In a rare display of bipartisan solidarity, key figures from across the political spectrum have condemned Indian misinformation and called upon international organizations to take note of repeated Indian attempts to destabilize the region through deceit and provocation.
The spirit of unity is not just limited to words. Cidefenceense drills, awareness campaigns, and patriotic activities have picked up pace in various cities, underlining the preparedness of the people and institutions alike.
As the region remains volatile, the resilience of the Pakistani people continues to serve as a strong deterrent against aggression. Where misinformation fails, the truth and solidarity of a nation will prevail.
It is also worth writing that a Special Corps Commanders’ Conference was convened at GHQ to review the regional security environment, particularly the situation in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu & Kashmir (IIOJK) with a focus on recent developments in Pahalgam.
Key Points of Discussion:
1. Pahalgam’s current Situation
The forum expressed serious concern over the continuing human rights violations and military aggression by Indian forces in the Pahalgam region.
The use of force against innocent civilians and attempts to alter the demographic structure of IIOJK were strongly condemned.
2. Regional Implications
The commanders warned that such actions could destabilize regional peace, inflame tensions across the Line of Control (LoC), and draw sharp reactions from the Kashmiri population.
Pakistan’s moral, political, and diplomatic support for the Kashmiri cause remains unwavering.
The forum acknowledged the emotional and historical bond between the people of Pakistan and Kashmiris, reaffirming the armed forces’ commitment to the just struggle of the Kashmiri people.
The commanders emphasized national unity and resilience, urging the Pakistani nation to stand firm and support the government’s efforts on diplomatic fronts.
The nation was assured that the Pakistan Army is fully prepared to respond to any misadventure or escalation by hostile Indian
forces.
Conclusion:
The Pakistan Army remains vigilant and committed to safeguarding national sovereignty and standing with the oppressed people of Kashmir in their right to self-determination as enshrined in the UN Security Council and the desire of Pakistani nation
