Field Marshal and DG ISPR Vow to Counter ‘Fitna al Hindustan’

Unfortunately in contest of our region India has always shown non serious behavior and has never accepted Pakistan from its heart and has always been trying to destabilize Pakistan. India has always involved in terrorism in Pakistan and the series of such accidents have been increased in recent days. Pakistan has presented various claims and evidence proving Indian involvement in terrorist activities within its territory. These allegations encompass financial support, training of militants, provision of weapons, and the establishment of training camps. Such activities are part of a broader strategy to destabilize the country. India has provided financial assistance to various militant groups operating within its borders. Indian intelligence agencies transferred significant amounts of money to groups like the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and BLA. These funds were allegedly used to finance attacks, procure weapons, and support operational activities. The specific details these financial transactions remain subjects of dispute between the two countries. India has established training camps in neighboring countries, such as Afghanistan, where militants are allegedly trained to carry out operations in Pakistan. Pakistan’s military has reportedly uncovered evidence of such camps, including documents and testimonies from captured militants. These camps are said to be equipped with modern training facilities and are allegedly operated with the assistance of Indian intelligence agencies. India is also involved in supplying weapons and equipment to militant groups targeting Pakistani interests. Reports have surfaced of Indian-made arms being recovered from militants involved in attacks within Pakistan. Additionally, there are evidences that Indian intelligence operatives have facilitated the smuggling of arms into Pakistan, further fueling the insurgency and militancy in regions like Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. India has used its diplomatic channels and intelligence networks to support anti-Pakistan elements. This includes alleged meetings between Indian diplomats and militants, coordination of activities, and sharing of intelligence. Such interactions are claimed to have taken place in countries like Afghanistan. The international community has expressed concern over the allegations of state-sponsored terrorism. Many countries have sided with Pakistan, supporting its claims of Indian involvement in terrorism. These nations argue that the evidence presented by Pakistan warrants a thorough investigation and that India should be held accountable if found guilty. The Indian involvement in terrorism have significant implications for regional stability. The India-Pakistan rivalry, if left unchecked, has the potential to escalate into a larger conflict, drawing in neighboring countries and possibly leading to broader geopolitical instability. The nuclear capabilities of both nations add a dangerous dimension to the situation, making diplomatic efforts and conflict resolution even more critical.

The Director General of Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry, recently addressed a press conference alongside the Federal Interior Secretary, presenting alarming details regarding India’s alleged involvement in acts of terrorism within Pakistan. According to preliminary investigations, credible evidence indicates that the recent attack on a school van in Khuzdar, Balochistan, was orchestrated with the support of India’s intelligence agency, the Research and Analysis Wing (RAW). This tragic event, in which many children were critically injured, is viewed as a part of a broader pattern of state-sponsored terrorism directed at destabilizing Pakistan.

Lt. Gen. Chaudhry emphasized that India has long pursued a policy of state terrorism against Pakistan, spanning over two decades. He drew historical parallels, citing the formation of Mukti Bahini and the fall of Dhaka as early instances of Indian interference. He further stated that in both 2009 and 2016, Pakistan officially shared evidence with Indian leadership and the international community regarding India’s involvement in supporting terrorism. Numerous detained militants have allegedly confessed to receiving Indian backing, and the capture of Indian operative Kulbhushan Jadhav from Pakistani soil remains a significant and internationally recognized incident in this context.

A series of brutal attacks in recent years has been linked to this alleged Indian strategy. These include the April 12, 2024, martyrdom of laborers; the killing of seven barbers in their sleep on May 9, 2024; the murder of coal miners in Duki on October 10, 2024; the February 10, 2025, assassination of two tailors in Kech; the tragic abduction and execution of laborers on February 19, 2025, in Barkhan; and the March 11, 2025, attack on unarmed civilians aboard the Jaffar Express. Most recently, on May 21, 2025, a bus carrying schoolchildren was targeted in Khuzdar, killing many and injuring 51 individuals—mostly children—highlighting what Lt. Gen. Chaudhry described as the “barbaric face of Fitna al Hindustan,” a term now being used in Pakistan to describe India’s alleged hybrid war strategy.

The situation is further compounded by a statement allegedly issued by an Indian military official, Major Sandeep, who reportedly admitted to India’s direct involvement in acts of terrorism from Balochistan to Lahore. Pakistani authorities argue that such admissions and repeated attacks on civilian targets point to a deliberate shift in Indian policy—from direct military confrontation to targeting Pakistan’s soft underbelly through proxy warfare.

Pakistan has consistently demanded credible evidence and transparency from India, particularly after incidents like Pahalgam, where cross-border blame was assigned without substantiation. Pakistan contends that it possesses video and audio evidence of Indian-sponsored terrorism, while India has repeatedly relied on unverified claims and false-flag operations to justify its actions. The disparity in evidence sharing underscores the contrasting approaches of both nations—with Pakistan opting for transparency and India allegedly engaging in propaganda and disinformation.

The role of Indian media in this complex dynamic has also come under scrutiny. Pakistani officials have criticized Indian media outlets for glamorizing terrorist attacks, including the tragic Khuzdar school bus incident. Moreover, concerns have been raised over the Indian media’s support for groups like the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA), suggesting an alignment between state policy and media narratives aimed at justifying or downplaying terrorism within Pakistan.

The lack of independent journalism in India was also highlighted, with Pakistani officials asserting that the Indian media operates under strict state control. This, they argue, renders India’s criticism of media freedom in Pakistan hypocritical. In response, Pakistan has presented graphic evidence, including photographs of the martyred and injured children from Khuzdar, to underscore the human cost of these alleged acts of terrorism.

Pakistan’s military leadership, including Field Marshal Asim Munir, has reiterated a firm and resolute stance against terrorism in all its forms. Speaking at corps commanders conference recently, which began with prayers for the victims of both Operation Bunyanum Marsoos and the Khuzdar attack, senior military officials condemned these acts as deliberate and inhumane assaults on innocent civilians. The forum affirmed that Pakistan will not tolerate externally sponsored terrorism and vowed that the country’s armed forces, in coordination with intelligence and law enforcement agencies, will dismantle and eliminate all terrorist networks and their facilitators.

The people of Pakistan have expressed unwavering support for their armed forces, rallying behind the military’s determination to protect the nation’s sovereignty and eliminate terrorism. There is a shared belief among the public that, just as Pakistan has withstood past challenges, it will again prevail against what is now being referred to as the “Fitna al Hindustan” campaign.

The allegations surrounding Indian involvement in terrorism in Pakistan carry serious implications for regional peace and security. The international community is being urged to take these concerns seriously, to assess the evidence presented by Pakistan impartially, and to hold all actors accountable under international law. The path to peace in South Asia lies in justice, transparency, and a collective stand against the use of terrorism as a tool of statecraft.
