Minister Mustafa Kamal Visits Kotli Hospital, Condemns Indian Aggression and Hails National Unity

KOTLI, AJK — In a powerful display of solidarity and national resilience, Federal Minister for Health Mustafa Kamal visited the District Headquarters (DHQ) Hospital Kotli on special directives from the Prime Minister of Pakistan and the Chief of Army Staff. The visit was aimed at expressing support for the victims of recent unprovoked Indian shelling and reinforcing Pakistan’s united stance in the face of aggression.

Speaking to media representatives outside the hospital, Minister Kamal delivered a compelling message underscoring the strength, unity, and resolve of the Pakistani nation. “India, which dreamt of Pakistan’s internal collapse, is now grappling with chaos within its own borders,” he said. Kamal accused Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi of harboring expansionist ambitions, declaring, “Modi believed he could become the ‘Israel’ of this region. Instead, his actions have only unified Pakistan.”

During his visit, the Minister was received by Deputy Commissioner Major (Retd.) Nasir Rafiq and Brigade Commander Brigadier Samiullah. He met with civilians injured in the Indian attacks, including a child whose brother was martyred in the shelling. Offering prayers for the bereaved, Kamal assured the victims of the government’s full support. “All victims will receive the best possible medical treatment, completely free of charge. The government stands shoulder to shoulder with its wounded citizens,” he affirmed.

Kamal emphasized that India’s provocations had led to an unprecedented sense of national cohesion. “Pakistan today is entirely different from what it was twenty days ago. Our people stand shoulder to shoulder with their Armed Forces, like a wall of steel,” he stated. He added that ethnic, linguistic, and sectarian divisions had been replaced by a powerful, shared commitment to the nation’s sovereignty.

The Minister criticized India’s actions as not only militarily aggressive but morally indefensible. “India did not target terrorists; they attacked children, women, and the elderly,” he said, citing the cries of grieving families in Kotli Hospital as a testimony to India’s brutality. “The world has now seen who the real terrorist is.”

Despite India’s significant military and economic advantages, Kamal claimed that India had suffered a “humiliating defeat” at the hands of Pakistan’s Armed Forces. “Our Air Force, Navy, and Army have delivered a fitting response to the enemy,” he declared, adding that Pakistan’s spiritual and moral strength had been recognized even by the global community.

Drawing a stark comparison with the resilience of children in Gaza, Kamal said, “Even global superpowers have failed to break the spirit of children in Gaza. India cannot expect to break the will of 240 million Pakistanis.”

Concluding on a spiritual note, the Minister said, “Our lives truly begin after death. And when Allah tests His people, He also grants them faith.”

Minister Kamal called on the nation to preserve this renewed unity, warning that internal harmony is Pakistan’s greatest strength against external threats.
