India told to desist from Bollywood-style jingoism

Expressing grave concern over Indian military leadership's irresponsible statements under immense political pressure, Pakistan Army has warned that "every act of aggression will be dealt with a swift, resolute and intense response" that will be remembered by posterity. The ISPR said in a statement that the Indian armed forces and its political masters must realise that Pakistani people and their armed forces are fully capable and committed to defend every inch of the country's territory with full resolve. "It has been noted with grave concern that five months after Maarka-e-Haq, in the run up to elections in Bihar and West Bengal, Indian military leadership has started parroting the same delusional, fabricated and provocative propaganda that they regurgitate before every state elections in India," it said. "It is saddening to see the military leadership of a nuclear-armed country issuing irresponsible statements under immense political pressure. The lies being fed to the Indian public and international audience have turned Indian military machine into a laughing stock," it continued. "Any professional soldier would know that unnecessary chest thumping and unwarranted statements might initiate a cycle of jingoism and lead to serious consequences for peace and stability in South Asia," the statement added. The statement noted that the contradictions in the Indian army presser are so evident that they should not be dignified with a response. "Evidently, the Indian leadership is attempting to mould history to its liking by inventing outlandish, Bollywood-style scripts," it said. "It appears that Indian army and the political leadership have not been able to reconcile with the idea that they have been decisively beaten in Marka-e-Haq, and that their falsehoods have been fully exposed."
