ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif Saturday called on President Asif Ali Zardari here at Aiwan-e-Sadr and briefed the president about the Indian aggression and effective response being given to India by Pakistan in the form of Operation Bunyan-al- Marsous.
The President lauded the exceptional professionalism and bravery of the Armed Forces of the country for giving a befitting response to Indian unprovoked aggression and missile attacks.
The President reaffirmed that Pakistan, as a responsible and peace-loving nation, had demonstrated considerable restraint in the face of Indian provocations.
He regretted that continued Indian belligerence had left Pakistan with no option but to respond decisively in defence of its sovereignty and to protect its citizens.
President Zardari emphasised that the entire Pakistani nation stands united and resolutely supports its Armed Forces in the face of Indian aggression.
He reiterated Pakistan’s unwavering commitment to safeguard the country’s sovereignty and territorial integrity at all costs.
Earlier, Pakistan’s civil and military leadership has taken a significant decision in light of escalating tensions with India, preparing a firm and unequivocal response in case of further Indian provocations.
According to high-level sources, if India carries out any additional aggressive actions, Pakistan is ready to target high-value strategic assets. The response plan also includes potential strikes on key Indian economic targets should a retaliatory military operation become necessary.
