Pakistan’s radical army chief Asim Munir makes BIG claim against India after humiliating defeat in Operation Sindoor, says New Delhi is region’s biggest…
Operation Sindoor: Pakistan Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir does not seem to have learnt any lessons from the humiliating defeat his forces sustained at the hands of their Indian counterparts during last month’s Operation Sindoor. The radical army officer is back to his old ways of spewing venom against India, ironically calling New Delhi as the “biggest sponsor of terrorism” in the region, without presenting any shred of evidence for his accusation.
India ‘biggest sponsor of terrorism’, claims Munir
Addressing Pakistan Army officers of the 52nd Common Training Programme on Friday, Asim Munir accused India of being the biggest terror sponsor in the subcontinent, and urged other countries, particularly Afghanistan, to be wary of New Delhi’s alleged “proxy” network, which he claimed is being used to carry out terror attacks in Pakistan and other nations.
“Pakistan wants friendly relations with Afghanistan, a brotherly Islamic country, but expects Kabul not to give space to India-sponsored terrorist groups, Fitna al-Hindustan and Fitna al-Khawarij. India is the biggest sponsor of terrorism in the region,” Munir claimed, adding that Pakistan will never accept Indian hegemony.
“We have never bowed down before India and won’t in the future” he asserted.
Terrorism India’s ‘internal issue’
Talking about terror incidents in India, Asim Munir said it was an internal issue of New Delhi, which he alleged stems from purported discrimination and violence against minorities, especially Indian Muslims. Munir claimed the terror attacks in India have nothing to do with Pakistan.
Notably, this allegation coming from a Pakistan army chief is quite ironic, as his country has a notorious track record as far as treatment of minority groups is concerned. Pakistan’s minority population is dwindling at a rapid pace since the country’s formation, while the same is flourishing in India, with their numbers increasing rapidly.
Additionally, Pakistan was carved out on the basis of religion, where Muslims enjoys privileges, while minorities like Hindus, Christians, Sikhs, and even other smaller Islamic sects like Shias and Ahmadis, are treated as second-class citizens.
Meanwhile, the Pakistan Army chief also addressed Islamabad’s defence preparedness, asserting that the country and armed forces are fully prepared to meet the requirements of modern warfare. The Field Marshal also stressed on the importance of unity among all state institutions, stating that the administration and civil bureaucracy are the foundation of harmony and their responsibilities are crucial.
Operation Sindoor
Last month, on May 7, Indian Armed Forces launched Operation Sindoor, a series of deadly, precision strikes on terror infrastructures deep inside Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), to avenge the heinous Pahalgam terror attack in which terrorists gunned down 26 civilians, mostly Indian Hindu tourists in Kashmir valley on April 22, 2025.
The Indian attack sparked a series of strikes and counter-strikes from India and Pakistan as both sides fired missiles and attack drones at each other’s territories for nearly 100 hours before a ceasefire agreement was reached.
