[00:00:12] Security forces' operation in Kohat Police Lines complete. All terrorists involved in the blast
[00:00:16] killed. The last two suicide bombers hidden in Police Lines
[00:00:19] also went to hell. A total of seven terrorists
[00:00:24] to isolate Pakistan. killed. General Officer Commanding Kohat directly
[00:00:27] supervised the operation. Commandos of Pakistan Army. The bomb disposal
[00:00:30] squad cleared the area and handed it over to the police. The links of the Kohat Police
[00:00:34] mosque blast were found in Afghanistan.
[00:00:37] One suicide bomber was
[00:00:40] then what is the need identified as Afghan national Matullah. The funeral prayer of
[00:00:41] 15 police officers martyred
[00:00:49] in the Kohat Police Lines blast was offered.
[00:00:52] Special prayers for the elevation
[00:00:55] track record is also the same, of the martyrs' ranks. The funeral prayer was attended by
[00:00:57] officers of the Pakistan Army and Police. The funeral
[00:01:10] prayer was offered in the ancestral area of Mardan Hathi.
[00:01:14] The police presented a salute
[00:01:15] to the martyr.
[00:01:22] The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting strongly condemned
[00:01:25] and incidents indicate the Kohat terrorist incident. The Kohat attack was carried out by the worst
[00:01:28] elements rooted in Afghanistan. Pakistan has serious concerns about the use
[00:01:32] of Afghan soil. The threat of serious consequences
[00:01:35] by Afghan Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid is condemnable.
[00:01:38] The condemnation of the Kohat attack by the Afghan Ministry of Foreign Affairs is not enough.
[00:01:42] Verbal sympathy needs to be converted into concrete and verifiable
[00:01:46] actions. Pakistan has the full determination
[00:01:49] and capability to eliminate terrorist threats from everywhere.
[00:01:53] Announcement by the Ministry of Information
[00:01:55] and Broadcasting.
[00:02:02] We are ready to go to any extent to protect the Two Holy Mosques. Saudi
[00:02:05] Arabia's security is Pakistan's unconditional commitment. This commitment
[00:02:09] is old, emotional, and unbreakable. Pakistan's political and military
[00:02:13] leadership is constantly in contact with the Saudi leadership. Pakistan
[00:02:16] and Saudi Arabia stand shoulder to shoulder. No one should have any doubt.
[00:02:20] Pakistan is practically present in Saudi Arabia for assistance.
[00:02:23] DG ISPR Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry's interview with Arab News.
[00:02:27] India is sponsoring terrorism
[00:02:35] in Pakistan. The Afghan Taliban regime
[00:02:38] should prevent Afghan territory from being used against Pakistan.
[00:02:41] If the Afghan Taliban regime does not fulfill its promises,
[00:02:45] then Pakistan has the full right to defend itself.
[00:02:49] Almost 80% of suicide bombers are Afghan citizens.
[00:02:52] Terrorists in Balochistan are trying to impose their false ideology
[00:02:56] at gunpoint. The state's policy is absolutely clear.
[00:03:06] you for freedom, and in return,
[00:03:30] Clearance operations are ongoing in the area. Security forces are determined to continue
[00:03:34] operations under the Stability
[00:03:35] Resolve.
[00:03:44] Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif's special petrol relief scheme.
[00:03:48] Implementation of the directive to include 20-year-old motorcycles, rickshaws,
[00:03:52] and Chingchi rickshaws is ongoing. All motorcycles registered
[00:03:55] after January 1, 2006, rickshaws, and Chingchis
[00:03:58] are registered in the fuel relief scheme.
[00:04:35] To avoid any fraud, do not share your personal information with anyone.
[00:04:39] Federal Minister Shazia Fatima Khawaja's news conference in Islamabad.
[00:04:42] And no government official
[00:04:48] will assist or facilitate a march, rally, or procession.
[00:04:52] If any officer is asked to participate in a march or rally,
[00:04:56] the Chief Secretary or Inspector General of Police should be informed immediately.
[00:06:12] Yasir Rahman, in today's program, we will talk about this term
[00:06:16] which is being so misused by India
[00:06:19] that perhaps you won't find an example
[00:06:22] of it anywhere in the world. The word used is
[00:06:26] counter-terrorism. In the name of counter-terrorism,
[00:06:29] an entire industry has been opened by India in occupied
[00:06:33] Kashmir. Why am I calling it an industry? It's an industry because
[00:06:37] if a soldier wants to build a career
[00:06:40] and get a promotion,
[00:08:12] and you said this, so today we are asking
[00:08:18] you have occupied our economy,
[00:08:21] you have occupied our land.
[00:08:24] When we talk about human rights, you shoot
[00:08:28] us directly. You desecrate our honor
[00:08:31] every day. Kunan Poshpora, that incident happened in 1990.
[00:08:35] To this day, those women have not received
[00:08:38] justice. So, sir, this counter-terrorism or
[00:09:12] they are called and harassed. What kind of human
[00:09:16] actions are these, so-called, in which the dead bodies
[00:09:19] of their loved ones are not returned to them? What kind of human terrorism
[00:09:23] actions are these? In the background of which,
[00:09:27] such a drug trade has started that it is not stopping. A very strong
[00:09:30] panel has joined us. In the studios, Raja Faisal Sahib is with us.
[00:09:34] He needs no introduction. He holds weight
[00:09:38] when it comes to India and especially its front line, occupied Kashmir. Dr.
[00:10:25] In fact, it is tantamount to collective punishment for Kashmiris. The report
[00:10:28] of UN special experts in 2025 has already declared
[00:10:32] it collective punishment. India, in the wake of the Pahalgam incident,
[00:10:35] has illegally detained more than 3,000 Kashmiris since April 2025,
[00:10:39] including journalists, students, and human rights
[00:10:43] activists. In various
[00:10:46] periods, thousands of Kashmiri homes and commercial properties
[00:10:50] were demolished without judicial orders, which is against the Indian Supreme Court
[00:10:54] of 2004.
[00:11:25] The court is giving free rein to murder, enforced disappearances,
[00:11:28] and torture, which are being used against Kashmiris.
[00:11:32] Illegal arrests, custodial killings, fake police
[00:11:35] encounters, and enforced disappearances have made the lives of the people of occupied Kashmir
[00:11:39] miserable. And such incidents
[00:11:43] have instilled fear and terror in innocent Kashmiri children.
[00:11:47] Analysts say that such situations
[00:11:50] that the situation in occupied Kashmir is not normal, but Kashmiris are still
[00:11:54] suffering for no fault of their own.
[00:12:25] like that, it's a barbaric act, it's an act of extreme control of a
[00:12:29] state over its subject is more threatening, it has created fear psyche among
[00:12:32] the people, people want government to come clear about this, what are the reasons why
[00:12:36] additional troops are being sent to Kashmir and government do not utter a
[00:12:40] single word that what really is going to happen, what they are planning
[00:12:44] actually, we we have right to know what is what what they are going to
[00:12:47] do, they call in forces, they call in the army,
[00:12:51] and these people, they call in investigation agencies
[00:12:55] to suppress the voices of the people. Sir, there is no other purpose for calling the army. They want
[00:12:59] to suppress Kashmiris. They want to keep these people away from their rights.
[00:13:02] You have noted the suits. First of all, Dr. Waleed Rasood Sahib, I will involve
[00:13:06] you in this. Dr. Sahib, please tell us. They say
[00:13:09] that we are doing counter-terrorism activities, number
[00:13:12] one. Secondly, they say that sir, we
[00:13:16] demolish these houses, we call it bulldozer justice,
[00:13:19] and it is within our authority. We do not need
[00:13:23] any permission from any court. What do you think about
[00:13:26] this series of extreme punishment that has been started in occupied Kashmir,
[00:13:29] especially after Pahalgam, where more than three thousand
[00:13:33] people have been detained? Can we really call it
[00:13:37] counter-terrorism? No,
[00:13:39] I think
[00:13:43] that India has occupied the land
[00:13:46] of occupied Kashmir, and their
[00:13:50] intention to occupy the land
[00:13:53] is
[00:13:59] and if they think that by merely occupying the land,
[00:14:03] a nation can be conquered, then this has never happened
[00:14:06] in the world. Number one. Number two,
[00:14:10] terrorism justified.
[00:14:12] What are they doing through the Indian Constitution? What
[00:14:16] does Article 21 say in their Indian
[00:14:19] Constitution, which is inducted? Is this not a denial
[00:14:23] of it?
[00:15:25] If there is a situation of peace in your own area,
[00:15:28] which is an internationally recognized area on your map,
[00:15:32] then that is called counter-terrorism. How much is this definition
[00:15:35] needed? What
[00:16:07] future do they want, and in the context of the future they want,
[00:16:11] all this game is being played there.
[00:16:14] If they wish to be with India,
[00:16:18] to deploy nine hundred thousand troops there?
[00:16:21] And all these officers, now if we look
[00:16:25] at the past officers, including the Chief of Staff
[00:16:29] who have served, their
[00:16:32] that they also carry out similar false flag operations.
[00:16:36] Their
[00:17:07] struggle, they start
[00:17:10] countering it from the very beginning.
[00:17:14] How do they do it? Whenever they see some
[00:17:17] symptoms in someone that makes them think why are we not free,
[00:17:21] when they are thinking, they are picked up at that very moment,
[00:17:25] and then they are tortured that how can you even think
[00:17:28] such a thing? It's exactly like that. And then, when they
[00:17:32] die during torture,
[00:17:35] they are then
[00:18:37] that the whole world knows about all their
[00:18:41] activities. But
[00:18:44] I would like to differ a little bit from you, with your permission,
[00:18:47] Rai Sahib. If Muslims had occupied it, not a single one of their temples
[00:18:51] would have been intact today. Muslims tried to run things
[00:18:54] democratically. If a Muslim was an emperor,
[00:18:58] he kept a Hindu prime minister with him
[00:19:01] just so that they could get representation. So, the way Muslims
[00:19:04] did it so well, look.
[00:20:50] So, how do you view this whole scenario diplomatically?
[00:20:52] Look,
[00:20:55] Mashallah, your panelists have made very good points.
[00:20:59] The narrative of counter-terrorism
[00:21:02] was started by India after 9/11
[00:21:05] for their strategic
[00:21:08] thinking against Pakistan,
[00:21:14] Counter-terrorism is
[00:21:17] being stamped on Pakistan
[00:21:21] that it is a terrorist country, it exports terrorism,
[00:21:24] and we are fighting against them
[00:21:27] for counter-terrorism. Right?
[00:21:31] And you see that when Modi went to Tel Aviv,
[00:21:34] he gave a speech in the Knesset
[00:21:38] I think on February 26
[00:21:42] of this year, he said, "We
[00:21:45] stand shoulder to shoulder with
[00:21:49] Israel in its fight against
[00:21:51] terrorism." They made Islam and
[00:21:55] terrorism synonymous, and as you
[00:21:58] said, the UN
[00:22:00] condemns Islamophobia. There are also UN resolutions
[00:22:04] against Islamophobia, and counter-terrorism, as you
[00:22:08] said, is a concept of the unit. Taking advantage
[00:22:11] of your presence, we also want to know
[00:22:14] if any indigenous movement
[00:22:18] that people of that area start
[00:24:20] administration is also involved, political
[00:24:23] leadership is also involved, besides
[00:24:26] the special army units
[00:24:29] deployed to repress Kashmiris.
[00:24:33] Now, there are many
[00:24:36] offshoots of terrorism
[00:24:39] that are outwardly very
[00:24:42] fatal and venomous.
[00:24:45] For example, the terrorism that is terrorism,
[00:24:49] if it comes to these farmers,
[00:24:52] it's a problem for their livelihood. The second
[00:24:56] terrorism is the 25 books they have published,
[00:24:59] and the right
[00:25:02] of freedom of expression was
[00:25:05] terrorism. I say that the terrorism
[00:25:09] that India is repeatedly perpetrating in occupied Kashmir
[00:25:13] has not achieved the result that
[00:25:16] they could win over Kashmiris. That's why I said earlier
[00:25:50] India has a big problem with it, sir. And this joint border
[00:25:53] commission has been formed so that the issues can be resolved
[00:25:57] effectively. Ambassador Naila
[00:26:00] Chauhan, I will involve you in this. So
[00:28:02] it's not India's game anymore. Now all three
[00:28:06] countries are involved, and they abrogated the Indus
[00:28:09] Waters Treaty in violation of all international
[00:28:13] law, including the Indus Waters
[00:28:16] Treaty, Article 4 for peaceful settlement of
[00:28:19] disputes. So, now India should realize
[00:28:22] that it is not an upper riparian state.
[00:28:26] China is the upper riparian state, India is the middle
[00:28:30] riparian state, right?
[00:29:32] We don't have veto power, that's one thing. Secondly,
[00:29:36] when you are talking about border management between
[00:29:39] China and Pakistan, our 1963
[00:29:43] agreement with China, 1962,
[00:29:46] it's clear that the Kashmir issue is disputed, and if
[00:29:49] the Kashmir issue is resolved tomorrow, that treaty, that negotiation
[00:29:53] between Pakistan and China, will be renegotiated.
[00:29:56] Both Kashmir and both countries are flexible. Secondly, I have written
[00:30:00] another paper on this, which was published in the Institute of Studies.
[00:30:04] In that, I have made a comparison of China's
[00:30:08] relationship with its neighbors and
[00:30:11] how much land China surrendered in all the disputed
[00:30:14] areas and how many lines it gave to its opponent
[00:30:18] for border management. In 1963, Doctor Sahib,
[00:30:21] we should also not forget that incident
[00:30:24] when a Pakistani delegation went and said,
[00:30:28] "Give us this area too," and China
[00:30:31] said,
