Pakistan will go to any extent to defend our sovereignty: Info Minister

Islamabad: Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Attaullah Tarar has said that they will go to any extent to defend their sovereignty.

Federal Minister for Information Atta Tarar visited the Line of Control (LoC) along with international and local media. The Ministry of Information facilitated the visit of local and international media representatives. The purpose of the visit was to expose the false and baseless propaganda spread by India.

To expose Indian propaganda, ground facts were presented to the media and media representatives were taken to specific places that were declared by India as alleged terrorist hideouts. By observing the ground facts, the testimony of the local population and the conditions themselves, the media got the opportunity to know the truth of these Indian claims.

On this occasion, Attaullah Tarar, while talking to the media, stated that India has repeatedly made baseless allegations against Pakistan. However, today we have put all the facts before the international and local media, and the places that India has been declaring as imaginary terrorist camps are actually areas of the ordinary civilian population.

He added that Pakistan is a responsible state that is committed not only to regional but also to global peace and Pakistan condemns terrorism or terrorist activities in any part of the world.

Attaullah Tarar further said that we have repeatedly proven through our actions that we are advocates of peace, but we will go to any extent to defend our sovereignty. India should take notice of human rights violations in occupied Kashmir before making accusations.

He also stated that India propagates on the Line of Control to hide its internal failures, but today the international media has seen the reality with its own eyes. Pakistan has once again made it clear to the world that it is committed to regional peace, but any Indian aggression will be responded to promptly and befittingly.

It is pertinent to note that the Ministry of Information has organized a two-day tour of the LoC for Pakistani and international media. The media will be taken to places that India calls terrorist camps.
