The top military commanders on Thursday rejected “provocative statements from the Indian leadership” and warned that the “irresponsible rhetoric” could have implications for the South Asian region.According to the military’s media wing, the ISPR, the 229th Corps Commanders’ Conference – chaired by Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Qamar Javed Bajwa – was held at the GHQ where the military brass reviewed the geo-strategic environment with a special focus on internal security and the situation on the borders.“Provocative statements of [the] Indian leadership are irresponsible rhetoric with implications for the region. [The] Pakistan Armed Forces are forces of order and peace and fully prepared to thwart any misadventure, whatever the cost, the commanders resolved,” the ISPR said.The commanders paid “glowing tribute” to the people of Indian Occupied Jammu and Kashmir who have been braving Indian atrocities and continued siege since August 5 when the Narendra Modi-led government revoked the special status of the disputed region.“Repression of Indian occupying forces can never deny Kashmiris their right to self-determination as promised by the UN resolutions,” the army chief was quoted as saying by the ISPR. “Regardless of the ordeal, their just struggle is destined to succeed,” he reiterated.“The forum was also apprised about the progress of ‘Operation Radd-ul-Fasaad’ which has put the security situation of the country on a positive trajectory for enduring peace and stability,” the ISPR said.
