ISLAMABAD (92 News) – Defence Minister Pervaiz Khattak has said that the violation of the Line of Control (LOC) by India is unacceptable. In a statement on Tuesday, he said that Pak Army is ready to defend the motherland. “We will not let coward attempts of the enemy succeed,” he maintained. Earlier today, Indian military aircraft violated the Line of Control as they intruded from the Muzaffarabad sector but were forced to flee due to the timely response of the Pakistan Air Force. The incursion into the Pakistani air space follows a series of threats by Indian political and military leadership after the attack on an Indian Army convoy at Pulwama by a local youth, in reaction to the oppression unleashed by the occupational forces. Sherry Rehman demands Parliament’s joint session Pakistan People’s Party Senator Sherry Rehman has asked the United Nations and America to stop India from aggression. She demanded the government summon a joint session of the parliament over the current situation. “At this time, a powerful and clear message should be sent out from the Parliament that we will give a befitting and swift response to Indian aggression.” Sherry Rahman said that Pakistan’s armed forces are fully prepared to respond to the ‘drum of war India is beating.’ She said that the world should be given the message that Pakistan does not want a war. “If a war is waged against us, then we are fully prepared for it," she said.
