PML(QA) condemns Indian designs

Published May 17, 2002

ISLAMABAD, May 16: Pakistan Muslim League (QA) president Mian Mohammad Azhar has warned New Delhi that if a war was imposed on us India will find 140 million people of Pakistan standing like a rock behind their valiant armed forces and it will not be a conventional but a nuclear war.

In a statement issued here on Thursday the PML(QA) leader advised India to refrain from taking any adventurous step in the garb of fighting terrorism on the pretext of Jammu incident since her whole history was full of acts of terrorism, subversion and designs of aggression against its neighbours.

He pointed out that at the moment India was involved in genocide of unarmed Kashmiris in occupied Kashmir. It was high time for the US and world community to take action against Indian attitude.

Mian Azhar said that the government should not remain oblivious of further mounting pressure on Pakistan in the near future and to take all steps of preparedness for any eventuality instead of depending on American conciliatory efforts.

He said that fighting against the enemy’s aggressive designs was not possible without activating the masses and creating national spirit.

He advised the government to take all the opposition parties and leaders into confidence so as to adopt a national plan of action to fight back the Indian aggressive designs.

PML(QA) foreign affairs committee chairman Mian Abdul Waheed said that the Jammu incident was a deliberate attempt of failing the peace mission of US assistant secretary of state Christina Rocca.

Earlier he recalled the incident of a violative attack on Sikh community on the occasion of former American president Clinton’s visit to India to give an impression that there was no freedom struggle but a mere creation of anarchy by Pakistan.

He said it is time that the America and world coalition to analyse the continued Indian fraud and insist on the independent investigation of this incident.

Mian Waheed said that India had been staging such dramas at a number of times.
