RAWALPINDI: Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Director-General (DG) Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry said the state has a clear stance against Fitna ul Hindustan and terrorists have no link with Pakistan or Balochistan.
He was addressing a press conference in Rawalpindi on security related issues among other things on Tuesday afternoon.
2025 has been a land mark and consequential year against all forms of terrorism, DG ISPR said while briefing on the number of terrorist related incidents in 2025.
He said the war against terrorism is the war of the entire nation and never before have such effective steps been taken against terrorism.
These terrorist groups, Fitna al-Khawarij and Fitna al-Hindustan, have no connection with Islam, the DG ISPR said.
In 2025, a total of 75,175 intelligence-based operations were conducted across the country against extremism.
This makes an average of 206 operations per day.
He said terrorists have no link with Pakistan or Balochistan.
2597 terrorists were killed last year.
From 2001 to 2025, incidents of terrorism increased in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
Afghanistan has become a hub of terrorism for the entire region, there is no legitimate regime in Afghanistan, DG ISPR said.
He said the Doha Agreement promised Afghan soil would not be used for terrorism and that promise is not being fulfilled.
India needed to be taught a lesson
DG ISPR said India launched an unprovoked attack against Pakistan and needed to be taught a lesson. During Marka-e- Haq India faced a humiliating defeat.
He said India fuelled terrorism after their defeat and is funding and providing patronage to terrorists in Afghanistan.
Why Fitna al Khawarij never attacks PTI?
During the press conference, DG ISPR questioned that why Fitna al Khawarij never attacks PTI. They themselves support Fitna al Khawarij and want to become their blue eyed.
PTI government is asking help from Afghanistan.
DG ISPR questions limited power of Imran Khan as PM
ISLAMABAD: The Director General of Inter-Services Public Relations (DG ISPR) has raised strong questions about the claims of a former Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Prime Minister regarding his powers.
He said the founding PTI leader was a highly powerful Prime Minister, yet later claimed that he had no real authority.
According to the DG ISPR, the former Prime Minister was so influential that he declared the Army Chief as the “father of the nation,” a privilege no Pakistani Prime Minister has had since 1947.
He said that Pakistan has only one true father, Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah, the visionary leader who created the country. Similarly, he said the nation has only one poet, Allama Iqbal, whose works have guided generations.
The DG ISPR added that the former Prime Minister had attempted to bring in a “new father” for the nation, driven by political motives.
He criticised the leader for running his party like a dictatorship and pursuing personal agendas, including advocating dialogue with terrorists.
He also questioned the role of the then DG ISI, saying that the intelligence chief was used for political purposes at the time.
The DG ISPR said that the misuse of state institutions for personal politics had serious implications for the country.
