Continuity of such brutalities are only fuelling the fire and need to be stopped in the interest of regional peace which also merits world’s attention, the forum concluded while discussing progress of National Action Plan (NAP).
COAS Bajwa appreciated the morale and performance of security forces, support from the nation and above all the blessings of Almighty Allah. He directed for continued state of vigilance and alertness so as to be prepared for response to any threat.

The army chief also directed to further the efforts in line with decisions of the government to accelerate implementation of NAP while rendering full assistance to other state institutions.
“Pakistan is on the positive trajectory of peace, stability and progress. No one can make us budge through use or threat of use of force. Similarly, policy and the right of use of force shall remain the prerogative of the state alone,” the COAS concluded.
